Seed collection hike

Come harvest seeds from flowering plants and identify pollinator-friendly species! During this guided seed collection hike, participants will learn when and where to harvest and collect seeds to take home.

This event is hosted in partnership with the Philmont Public Library and the Claverack Free Library.

What to expect: We will walk about one mile along the Meadow Loop trail, a mostly flat grass path, stopping often to discuss the plants we see and collect seeds.

What to bring: Water, weather-appropriate clothing and footwear, sunscreen, and pruning shears if you have them. Cameras, smartphones, or journals for note-taking are recommended for this program!

What not to bring: Please, no dogs.

We are proud to offer this program for free to the public with a suggested five-dollar donation. This gift will allow CLC to continue offering programs like these at no cost and support land conservation work.
