Join Friends of Marott Woods for a guided hike through the nature preserve, featuring the vibrant wood poppy in bloom. Led by naturalist Bill Malcolm, this walk will focus on identifying spring ephemerals—wildflowers with short but spectacular life cycles. Learn how these delicate plants emerge, bloom, and disappear within weeks, and discover the important role they play in the preserve’s ecosystem. Come experience these fleeting seasonal highlights before they’re gone.
