If you haven’t explored Hawley Bog in the high Berkshires yet, don’t miss this opportunity. More common to our north, bogs are typically high-acid, nutrient-poor habitats. And the bog plants possess a variety of fascinating adaptations to help them thrive under these conditions. You’ll see insect-eating plants, the plant that makes peat moss, and several native orchids! We will be walking on a boardwalk and will be in the open hot sun for a portion of the trip so sun protection is suggested. Directions to our meeting location provided upon registration.
