CASCO — Loon Echo Land Trust is celebrating Mother’s Day by offering a free Children’s Wildflower Walk from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, May 12, at Mayberry Hill Preserve.
The kid-friendly adventure is a wonderful way to share your love of nature with future generations.
Loon Echo staff will lead children and their families stroll along the preserve’s one-mile easy trail filled with activities and games to help children learn more about the natural world around them. Trillium, lady slippers and violets will be in bloom for children to discover.
Parents and caregivers will learn tips and tricks for making their own outdoor adventures with their kids fun and educational.
Participants will meet at the Mayberry Hill Preserve trail-head at 10 a.m. From the Casco village center, turn right on Mayberry Hill Road and drive to the top of the hill. Turn left at the stop sign and the Preserve will be short distance on the right. Parking is available along the road-side at the trail head.
Participants are encouraged to bring water, snacks and bug spray if needed for this easy level program.
