Berry Springs Park and Preserve, 1801 Co Rd 152, Georgetown, TX 78626, 8:30am – 10:00am.  Park and Start at the restroom at the top of the hill past the donkeys. Join us for an introduction on how to identify native plants in their natural habitat. We plan to conduct this walk in all four seasons of 2019 to give you practice identifying native plants during their annual growth cycle of winter, spring, summer and fall. Field guides and cameras are encouraged! Be prepared for walking on roughly mulched but level, open terrain. Wear sturdy clothes appropriate for the weather, closed toe shoes, and bring water and snacks as needed. Please plan on arriving a little early to sign a state NPSOT waiver. No reservation is required, but you may contact Gary Bowers (info removed) if you have any questions.
