Join the Guided Tour of the Tree Trek Exhibit After a little over a year, our little Tree Trek trees are starting to grow up. On Saturday, August 16th, and 1 p.m., we’ll be offering a guided tour of the exhibit so you can see how far they’ve come. A cooperative effort of the Washington County Master Gardeners Tree Squad and the Sally Manzara Interpretive Nature Center, our Tree Trek follows a short path around the center, then along a wheelchair accessible trail into the park, with information along the way about the various tree species that you will encounter. Take a guided tour with local master gardeners and learn all about native trees and tree life in Sunfish Lake Park, with a special focus on what happens to those trees during the summer season. This is a free event and open to the public. Learn about the SMINC’s Tree Trek, and come join us.
