Join Docent Naturalists Laura Levin, Marie-Anne Neimat, and Emma Finter for a wildflower treasure hunt. This preserve is known for its rich display of colorful blossoms. On this leisurely-paced hike along the Cordilleras, Polly Geraci, Dick Bishop, and Blue Oak trails, you’ll search for early spring wildflowers and other interesting features while stopping frequently with the group to share discoveries. If the timing is right, you’ll be treated to a display of an intriguing California native plant called fetid adder’s tongue.
