Winter Botany Hike

Join a guided winter walk through Central Park where you'll discover what plants are doing during the colder months. This is a great opportunity to learn how to spot common species and find smaller plants tucked beneath fallen leaves. If you have a hand lens or plant identification book at home, bring them along—they'll come in handy. Just make sure everyone in your family is dressed warmly for outdoor exploration. This activity works well for families who enjoy nature and want to build their plant knowledge together. No special skills or experience are needed, just curiosity and a willingness to explore the park on a winter day.
