Event Description

Bird & Nature Adventures Logo

Be a Forager-Steward ~ Join Naturalist Kathlean Wolf for a free family-friendly nature hike to look for the amazing variety of natural sources of food, micronutrients, medicine and other uses. Learn about their importance to wildlife and to people over history, how to do responsible human foraging where permitted, and ways to grow your own!  Please note that no foraging is permitted in Conservation Parks.

Cherokee Marsh is Madison’s largest conservation park with three units - North, South, and Mendota. Each month, year-round we explore the north unit's beautiful trails through the woodlands, wetlands, and restored prairies along the Yahara ‘Catfish’ River. Co-sponsored by Madison Parks, Friends of Cherokee Marsh , Sierra Club and Madison Audubon Society . Follow North Sherman Ave. to the parking lot at the end of the gravel entrance road. Free, family-friendly guided nature walks at Cherokee Marsh Conservation Park – North are held on the 1st Sunday of each month, year-round 1:30-3pm. No registration is required. No pets are allowed.
