Join us for this easy-going walk! We’ll wander east along the Brushy Creek trail alongside Hairy Man Road and stop to discuss native plants. As a bonus, you’ll learn the about the legend of the Hairy Man as well as why the area is called “Fern Bluff.” We will be walking off trail in several areas with uneven terrain.
