SUMMARY:First Thursday Botanizing Walk - Ben Utter Trail\, Acadia Management Area
DESCRIPTION:Trillium cernuum\, nodding trilium. DMcGrady \nOn May 2\, 2024 from 10 am to noon\, join us at the Ben Utter Trail\, Arcadia Management Area in Exeter\, RI. On this walk with biologist Denise Poyer\, we will discover early spring flowers deep in the Arcadia Management Area. \n\nWe will first walk south on Sand Trail to look for Indian cucumber root (Medeola virginiana)\, dolls-eyes (Actaea pachypoda)\, sharp-lobed hepatica (Anemone acutiloba) and many other ephemeral flowers.  This trail features a wonderful patch of nodding trillium (Trillium cernuum)\, one of the few trillium species found in RI.  We will then turn back north on the Ben Utter Trail to search for downy rattlesnake-plantain (Goodyera pubescens)\, as well as more wetland species\, including early violets. \nPlan for a mile or so of walking on wooded trails and wear appropriate hiking footwear. \n\nThis walk is free and open to the public. Donations are appreciated. DONATE \nRegistration Below.  We will email the meet up location and directions to those who register a few days before the walk using either office@riwps.org or communications@riwps.org.  (Be sure to check your spam/junk folder if you do not get this email.) \nCancellations. We always have more people who want to attend a walk than can be accommodated. Please if you find that you cannot attend\, notify the office@riwps.org as soon as possible. \n  \nThis walk is a part of our First Thursday Botanizing Walk Series which is free and open to the public. See our Botanizing Walks home page for important details you should know about the walks in this series.
