10:00am – 12:00pm

Join us for our monthly Saturday YHikes! (Youth Hikes). Come along as we explore the field station and learn about the animals, fungi and plants that live here. You never know what we’ll find! This program is a wonderful opportunity for families to explore nature together. We pick a different trail to explore each month and usually move slowly as we stop often to look at and learn about all the different species that live in Northern Virginia.

Cost: Free!

Age: Families with children ages six and older.

Weather policy: Date and time subject to change dependent on weather. Please check your email for updates on the morning of the event.

COVID-19 information: This program will occur entirely outside and is limited to 10 people. We will practice social distancing and wear masks, so please bring one with you. Please DO NOT attend if you or anyone in your household has experienced any symptoms related to the coronavirus in the last two weeks. We will adhere to the following additional guidelines to keep everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic:

  • The farmhouse will be closed

  • No sharing of binoculars, hand lenses, etc.
  • Masks will be required when social distancing is not possible
  • Group size will be limited

Cancellation policy: If you register and can no longer attend this event, please let us know as soon as possible. Due to smaller group size limits imposed by COVID, many of our events have waitlists, and a few ‘no-shows’ have a significant impact.
