Fall Property Tours 2011: passed, Look for our next tours in Spring 2012
WHISPERING FIRS BOG on Saturday, Oct 1st @ 9am, 10am, 11am – each group limited to 12
Once again, we’ll be opening up this sensitive habitat for small groups to experience the magical place fondly referred to as “The Bog”.
No one knows this treasure better than VHS science teacher, Dr. Tom DeVries, who will provide a fascinating narrative on the unusual features and plants of this uncommon natural environment, and will explain how it came to be. Preserving a portion this sphagnum bog launched the Land Trust 22 years ago, and we are currently in the process of acquiring the other half. Take this opportunity to see it in person.
Note that this is more of a “stand & see” tour, than a walking tour. Footing is tricky and wet – boots strongly recommended. Kids 12 and up only, please.
Each tour is $5 per family for Land Trust members or $25 per family for non-members (includes a year’s membership in the Land Trust). Reserve your space at 463-2644 or info@vashonlandtrust.org.
