Every spring, our beautiful Berkshire Trails come alive with colorful flowers, changing each week. We will hunt for and identify them at various properties in South County. Learn about the spring ephemeral flowers as we enjoy a beautiful spring walk. Participants must be moderately fit and capable of walking 2-3 miles on uneven, hilly ground and rocky and root-filled trails; must wear sturdy walking shoes and be prepared for weather changes. The use of hiking poles is helpful. Properties to be visited: Bartholomew’s Cobble, Sheffield; Bidwell House, Monterey; Mary Flynn Trail, Stockbridge; Housatonic Rail Trail, Housatonic; Benedict Pond, Beartown State Forest; Goodnow Preserve, Monterey. (Subject to change.)
