Four Adventures, One Preserve at Grass River

Grass River Natural Area in Bellaire is gearing up for a busy weekend. First up, on Friday Sept. 26, at 10am, they’ll host “Eyes on the Forest,” a free community science opportunity to detect invasive species like highlight hemlock woolly adelgid, spotted lanternfly, and five priority plants. Learn about these species, then head outside and look for them! Next up at 1pm that day is the NMC Fall Mushroom Foray, an extended education program with Northwestern Michigan College that helps you find and identify fall fungi. Later that evening, register ($10) for the Owl Prowl at 7pm, where you’ll take an evening hike to look for the winged denizens of the night. Last but not least, join the GRNA team for their Fall Stream Monitoring from 9-11am on Saturday, Sept. 27, to collect habitat data along Finch Creek.
