Join us for a visit to Timber Hill Farm in Paradise Township, a 100-year-old farm protected with a conservation easement, put in place by second-generation owner, Edie Stevens, back in 1999. On this outing, we’ll be exploring and learning about vernal pools – a unique type of wetland habitat that is typically a small, shallow water body. Vernal pools, even in their impermanence, play an important role.

This hike will be led by Environmental Educators, Brittney Coleman and Derek Lederer, from Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center. Brittney is also a BWA Board Member!
