Celebrate the coming of spring with the Crossroads at Big Creek at one of their nature-themed events. Among the various outdoor activities, Crossroads is hosting their final Fish Tales Lecture on March 17th. Coggin Heeringa, the Interpretive Naturalist with Crossroads, describes what is in store for attendees.

Also coming up this following week is an Ides of March Hike on March 15th, which provides a chance to get outside and learn about what it means to girdle a tree and how it can help a tree’s growth. There will also be a Junior Nature Club on March 16th for preschool-aged children and their guardians to attend, where the children will learn about the “Green in Nature.” Crossroads will also continue to host Saturday Science for families to learn about the science of nature. All of the events at the Crossroads are free to attend, and all are welcome.
