Come and join fellow native plant lovers for a walk on the Locust Grove hiking trails with Prof. Meg Ronsheim, Vassar College Professor of Biology.  Locust Grove is the former home and 200 acre estate of artist and inventor Samuel F.B. Morse.

This walk promises spectacular views, plenty of plants, and time for questions and discussion of the plants and the history of the land, as well as the opportunity to connect with fellow Wild Ones members (or learn more).

The hiking trails have beautiful views of the Hudson and further.  Please wear your sturdy shoes and be prepared for hills and rocky ground.

Registration is required with a limit of 20 people.  Detailed tour information will be sent to all who register. Subscribe to our monthly newsletter to receive program announcements. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please contact [email protected].
