Bring your family and friends to spend time in Kansas City’s most biodiverse natural spaces and learn about nature! Participants will be guided alongside conservation professionals to experience our remnant native ecosystems through presentations, hiking, nature walks, and/or hands-on experiences depending on the event. For this hike we will be focusing on our native trees and birds!
This work helps to preserve and restore the health and resilience of our public lands. Kansas City WildLands is a team of Bridging The Gap. No experience necessary!
