Welcome Winter Walk at Mountain Lakes Preserve
Saturday, January 16, 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM, Adults and Families (children 5yo+)
Join this family-friendly morning walk at the Mountain Lakes Preserve in Princeton, exploring the wonders of the natural world in winter. The Friends of Princeton Open Space welcome Jeff Hoagland, Education Director and Naturalist at the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association to lead this revealing annual walk. Discover the unique survival strategies of local plants and animals from milkweed to red oak and meadow vole to robin. Learn where animals store food and how they survive the season’s relentless chill. If weather permits, we will play the ‘Hibernation Game’. Dress warmly, boots are recommended, and bring your sense of wonder. Please register in advance at 609-737-7592 or bnc@thewatershed.org. This program is cosponsored by the Washington Crossing Audubon Society.
