Getting to Know Grasses

Your family is invited to explore why grasses matter more than most people realize. This guided hike travels 1.6 miles along the Prairie Trail, where a naturalist will point out the special characteristics that make grasses such important parts of our landscape. It's a wonderful way to discover something we often walk past without a second thought. This program welcomes all ages and works well for families curious about nature. The hike runs for about an hour and a half, giving everyone time to really look around and ask questions. If you have questions before the event, you can reach the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (they're open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.).
