SUMMARY:Old Growth Forest Spring & Wildflower Walk
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJoin Eco-A and partner Cascade Springs Nature Conservancy for a fun and enlightening walk in the park!\nThis is the second of a series of park events we are hosting with CSNC this year. This Sunday\, April 12 at 2 PM\, we’ll meet at the main entrance trail to the preserve\, by the benches at the north end of the parking area. \nWe’ll walk approximately 1.5 miles on natural trails\, stopping to admire old 200 year-old trees and uncommon wildflowers. What we’ll see tells the story of how this park still retains the living legacy of the old growth forest that belonged to the Muscogee Creeks only 20 decades ago!\nOur next walk with CSNC at Cascade Springs Nature Preserve will be June 20 — stay tuned!\n\n\nTo register (RSVP) click HERE\nLimit 15\, details and directions will be sent to registered participants. \nA donation of $15 or more helps support our programs.\n \n

SUMMARY:Line Creek Nature Area\, Peachtree City
DESCRIPTION: A remarkable array of native blooms can be found at the Line Creek Nature Area\, including native azaleas\, mountain laurel\, many spring ephemerals\, and even a few uncommon species enjoying a small rock outcrop. We’re excited to walk in this remarkable\, and highly biodiverse natural area found surprisingly close to developed areas in Peachtree City\, GA.\, located south of the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport\, about 30 minutes from downtown Atlanta.\nLine Creek Natural Area comprises 70 acres of diverse habitat managed by the Southern Conservation Trust. The creek itself is the centerpiece\, running through interesting geologic forms including small rock outcrops and boulders\, slowing from time to time in pools and rock-strewn shoals\, and finally emptying into wetlands and a lake hosting an array of wildlife from beaver to osprey. Habitat type ranges from streamside marsh to botanically rich slopes to drier rises capped with oaks\, hickories\, persimmon\, sassafras\, much sparkleberry\, and even a few prickly pear cactus.\n\nLikely the rockiness of much of this woodland protected it from soil disturbances from farming and development\, though mills were built along the creek. The unusually rocky substrate also supports uncommon species.\n\nWe’ll walk about 2.5 miles on natural trails that have rocks and roots in some areas\, with several stops along the stream for viewing\, picture taking — and maybe even foot-dipping if it’s a warm day.\n\n\n\nTo register (RSVP) click HERE  – details and directions sent to registered participants. \nA donation of $15 or more helps support our programs.\n

SUMMARY:Spring Ephemerals at Henderson Park\, Tucker
DESCRIPTION:Eco-A partners with City of Tucker Parks in a series of themed walks in several premier Tucker natural spaces. \nJoin us for a late afternoon stroll through Henderson Park as we appreciate an array of spring wildflowers and native species diversity in one of Tucker’s flagship green-spaces. Here we can still experience remnants of the original forest and the many species they support. \nWe’ll walk approximately 1-1.5 miles on natural trails\, stopping frequently to notice the special\, yet sometimes overlooked\, inhabitants of our natural landscape\, and what it means when we find such species. \nTo register (RSVP) click HERE  – Details and directions sent to registered participants – A donation of $15 or more helps sustain our programs.\n

SUMMARY:Ossabaw Island
DESCRIPTION:Explore nature photography\, birding\, and more on one of Georgia’s premiere barrier islands! \nWe invite nature-lovers\, nature photographers and nature artists of all skill levels to join us for a long weekend on Ossabaw Island\, the 3rd largest of Georgia’s barrier islands. Ancient maritime forest\, salt marsh and beach environments host a broad array birds and wildlife we’ll see on walks and island outings. Migratory shorebirds traveling from the southernmost tips of South America to to their Arctic nesting grounds are commonly seen near our lodging houses in late April and early May. \nFine art photographer and master naturalist Kathryn Kolb hosts this 4-night stay on Ossabaw in honor of the vision and spirit of Sandy West (1913-2021)\, Ossabaw’s owner\, protector and advocate since the 1960s.\nMrs. West’s mission in protecting one of Georgia’s largest coastal barrier islands was to ensure a safe haven for its natural ecosystem and all its inhabitants\, as well as to provide a haven for students of nature and artists\, especially artists inspired by nature. Our ability to learn about and experience Ossabaw Island’s remarkable natural environment is made possible by Sandy West’s vision and dedication to protecting the island from development\, and the on-going work of the Ossabaw Island Foundation.\n\n \n\n\n  \n  \nParticipants can choose from a variety of programs and activities including • Native forest ecosystem walks and excursions • Nature’s geometry and forest intelligence • Birding by sight and call • How to enhance your vision in the field using any kind of camera (including cell phones). We may have an additional special guest instructor join us as well – stay tuned!\n\nWe’ll host guided outings to maritime forest\, old-growth trees\, a rookery (if accessible)\, saltmarsh\, and a natural “bone yard” beach. Evenings will be open for salon-style discussions on nature\, art and related topics\, and one evening will include a slide show on the Nature of Photography.  \n\nParticipants can design their own weekend itinerary\, combining activities with quiet\, unstructured time to make photographs\, paint or write and create a personal connection with the island’s natural landscape. We’ll gather as a group at meals\, prepared fresh from scratch by Chef Leslie Varnadore\, former on-island coordinator/caretaker for Sandy West. Chef Leslie specializes in dock fresh seafood\, vegetarian and healthy southern dishes. \n\nAll inclusive trip fees pending final preparations – to secure your space\, a $650 non-refundable deposit is due Jan 31\, 2026. (6 spaces left)\n\nIsland Lodging:  Club House is an historic early 1900’s hunting lodge\, and Boarding House is an historic cottage\, partially restored. Most rooms accommodate 2 people\, most bathrooms will be shared. \nBecause lodging is limited\, our group will be the only group on the island during our stay 🙂 \nTo register click HERE\nFor questions\, contact: Kathryn      404-862-0118\n  \n\n\n
