Join us for a walk led by Su Jewell, Certified Wildlife Biologist® and environmental author, at the Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area.
We won’t be able to talk about all the plants, but the trail goes along Thompson Creek, so there is some flood plain and upland. This won’t be the same kind of walk-stop-walk-stop, etc. we’re used to. People will get to see a really nice local natural area.
Meet at: Mustang Trailhead, 10702 Harley Road, Lorton, VA 22079
Distance: Approximately 2.5 miles on natural surface trail, with somewhat hilly terrain.
Registration is required and attendance is limited to 15 participants.
Registration Coming Soon
