Over 70 miles of trails and green space in Greater Portland, Maine
In this Portland-based Four Season Walks series, co-hosted by Wild Seed Project and Portland Trails, participants will learn how to identify and form relationships with many of the native plants that grow in the places we live, work and play. Join Nell Houde, Wild Seed Project's education lead, as we explore the Midslope Trail on the Eastern Prom in the bustling city of Portland. This will be the first of four walks, spaced throughout the year in each unique season, where we will all engage in observing and asking questions of our surroundings, and identifying the varied plants, shrubs, trees, ferns, and wildlife along the trail.
The goal of these walks is to foster relationships with place through relationships with plants, and encourage further stewardship of our community spaces. Come walk, learn, and play with Wild Seed Project and Portland Trails! We will meet at the beginning of the Midslope trail. We encourage you to carpool if you are coming from outside of Portland, and park along the Eastern Promenade road, or walk if you are coming from the city.
Rain Date: Friday May 5th
