Free Autumn Plant I.D. Program to Be Held at Two Mile Beach

 

By Press Release

CAPE MAY — The Friends of Cape May National Wildlife Refuge will present a special free Sat. morning family nature walk, “Enjoying Autumn Native Plants,” on Nov. 16, 10-11:30 a.m., at the Two Mile Beach Unit of the Refuge.
Autumn is a fantastic time to study our native trees, shrubs and other plants. When the camouflage of leaves disappears, the true silhouette of a plant is revealed. If you enjoy autumn hikes and always wondered what you see along the way, then join Volunteer Master Naturalist Joe Alvarez for this informative, fun program. Through examination of some simple keys and field guides, you can learn to appreciate and identify the bark, buds, shape and characteristics of many of the local trees and shrubs at Two Mile.
This walk is free and perfect for all ages. As always, dress for the weather. Heavy rain cancels the event. After the walk, the public is invited to warm up in the newly-opened Nature Store at Two Mile.
Please meet at the Visitors Contact Station at the Two Mile Beach Unit of Cape May National Wildlife Refuge, 12001 Pacific Ave (Ocean Dr), Wildwood Crest, near the former Coast Guard Loran Station. For more information or directions, please call 609-513-9349.
