Events

We will be meeting at the Windswept cabin at 10am where we will take a guided 1.6 mile easy hike with Sue Ortlieb, Program and Administrative Coordinator at Greenwood. 

Upon returning from the hike we will have an opportunity to share native seeds. Bring native seeds to share if you have them! 

For the potluck bring a dish to share. Plates, utensils, and water will be provided. Outlets are available for slow cookers.

Some information about Greenwood:

Greenwood Foundation was established in 1964 with the mission of "Preserving Land, Protecting Wildlife" by the late George and JoAnn Jury.

All of the land is protected by conservation easements through Little Traverse Conservancy, so it will never be developed.

There are 3 main pods of land at Greenwood, and we are going to be at the Windswept section.

They have resident wildlife including elk, deer, bear, bobcat and all of the typical forest wildlife such as raccoons, turtles, fish, etc..  Also many birds and migratory bird species. 

They provide environmental education and support science research from elementary school, universities, environmental groups and senior citizens.
