About this event

Join us at Heartland Prairie at Gordon Moore Park in Alton for these bimonthly hikes. 

Walks begin at 5:30 p.m.

Walks will focus on identifying native plants and birds. 

We will discuss the plants in our newer sections at the observation deck until approximately 6:00 p.m. so if you are running late, you can still meet us in the front section of the prairie.

Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring water, binoculars and a plant identification book. Drinks and snacks will be served after the walk.

Extra Session

At 5:00 p.m. on the nights of the walks, we will also be offering a short, hands-on class explaining how to start and maintain a prairie. The class will focus on identifying native plants and eliminating invasives. Bring questions, protective gloves and clippers if possible.
