Dedicated to the conservation and appreciation of Minnesota’s native plants and plant communities
Come join other MNNPS members for a Saturday morning hike into the prairie communities of Crow-Hassan Park Preserve. Participants will be led by John Moriarty through the rolling hills, woods, lakes, wetlands and prairie of this 2,800 acre metro park reserve to view the native vegetation and wildlife that call this fantastic place home.
Digital dragonflies in an analog world? Join us for a different kind of field trip with a focus on dragonflies. We will spend about a half hour in the classroom reviewing dragonflies and then spend about an hour out in the wetland looking for dragonflies, taking their photos when we can get them to pose and netting those that do not want to pose.
FIELD TRIP IS FULL. An Overnight Trip to Multiple Sites in Black River State Forest. Meet in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, travel time of approximately 2 hours, 15 minutes from St. Paul, MN. Spend Saturday afternoon exploring various habitats. Stay overnight either at the Pigeon Creek Campground within the state forest, or at motels in Black River Falls. Spend the next morning exploring additional habitats and then travel back that afternoon.
