We look forward to the day when conditions are safe enough to resume our group field trips. Meanwhile, you can get outside, enjoy the spring weather, and learn about native plants on your own, guided by NPSOT interpretive plant signs at any of the following four locations:

Each sign provides identification tips and fun facts about the plant. If you’d like to learn even more, you can point your cell phone’s camera at the QR code on the sign. The QR code will take you to a webpage (https://npsot.org/wp/wilco/resources/interpretive-signs) where you can find informative links for each plant, plus maps showing where all the signs are located.

Enjoy!

We have a workday at the Landfill Pollinator Garden on Saturday, April 3, 2021 from 8am-noon.  Come help members of NPSOT and the Good Water Master Naturalists weed and cut back the plants on our Bluebonnet covered berm.

Please wear a mask, bring your own cutting and digging tools and dress for the weather. Water and snacks will be provided. We will distance ourselves as we work.

Park across the street from the garden in the Recycling Center lot at 101 Landfill Road, Hutto.

Williamson County Comprehensive Parks Master Plan-2018

— by Randy Pensabene
I ran across the Master Plan for Williamson County’s parks and it has a great description of all our county parks, maps, and much more on population, expected growth and other data.  Just passing it along…

You can download the PDF by clicking on the picture in this post or click on this link, or find the info at its source on the county’s website, www.wilco.org. Once there, choose  Departments -> Parks & Recreation -> Master Plan -> 2018 Comprehensive Parks Master Plan, 9/7/2018 (currently the largest file on that page).

Also in the news, Williamson County Parks and Recreation announced they are now on Instagram to stay connected with visitors and share park features.  Join them by following the handle @wilcotxparks on Instagram.
