What better way to celebrate St. Paddy's day than hiking to search for nature's green carpet - moss! These plants have fascinating qualities and have been used for anything from pollution indication to bandages! This hike will be up to two miles long on easy, but rocky terrain. Many moss varieties cover this damp forest area, so be prepared to see green! All ages are welcome.
Parks are for everyone. Please let us know if you need special accommodations. For more information about this program, please call (540) 622-2262 or email samantha.house@dcr.virginia.gov
