With a name like Skunk Cabbage,
this is not the kind of spring wildflower most people look for, but it is
one of the most fascinating botanical
wonders of our woods! On this guided walk, we’ll find skunk cabbage in
bloom and learn about its unique
traits. Skunk cabbage grows in wet
woods, so wear shoes or boots that
can get muddy. Please register.
