Calling all adventurers, naturalists and curious minds! Join experts and friends at Merck Forest & Farmland Center for any or all of 24 hours between Saturday, July 25th, to  Sunday, July 26^th, for both guided and self-led exploration of life on MFFC’s 3200-acre property. Bring friends and family to explore and celebrate the diverse community of insects, birds, trees, flowers, fungi, reptiles and amphibians, and anything big and small in-between; make sure to sign up for one or more of our guided field walks focused on exploring these organisms. Don’t worry — there’s no need to be an experienced naturalist yourself: we’ll have plenty of experts on hand to help with an ID and to document your findings. Workshops will also focus on contributing to citizen-science efforts here at Merck Forest and across the region.  We have quite the event planned so make sure to check out the full itinerary and event details on our registration page found here.

Hope to see you there!
