Virtual Nature Program with East Bay Regional Park District

May 18May 16
Join us for our monthly virtual nature program that our friends from the East Bay Regional Parks District have been so generous to lead us in. If you are blind or low vision and want to learn more about nature, we invite you to join us between 3:00 and 4:00 pm on the third Wednesday of the month as our naturalist from the East Bay Regional Park District, Michael, leads us in that month’s nature lesson. Our May gathering will take place on Wednesday, May 18 and will have us learning all about official flora and fauna of California. You may know California’s official flower, or bird! But how about the official rock, grass, lichen, reptile, and many other things? You may be surprised on what has been voted to become something official and why. If you have any questions or would like access to the zoom link for the East Bay Regional Park Tours series, please contact Jamey Gump by email at youth@lighthouse-sf.org or by phone at 415-694-7372. -
