SUMMARY:Wednesday Wonder Walk - Rhody Rocks
DESCRIPTION:February theme is Rhody Rocks. Come walk\, wonder\, and grow with us.\n\n\nWe are teaming up with our friends from WildRoots once a month for Wednesday Wonder Walks\, a guided family hiking series curated to spark curiosity and nurture a lifelong love of nature. Our partnership blends playful discovery with embedded teaching\, helping children build knowledge naturally as they explore. By connecting families to the land and encouraging stewardship\, we hope to inspire the next generation to care for—and protect—the wild places around them. \nEach session invites children and their families to slow down\, look closely\, and discover the magic of the natural world together. Every month features a new theme and a new Westerly Land Trust property\, giving young explorers the chance to get to know their local environment in a meaningful and memorable way. \nFebruary’s theme is Rhody Rocks and will be held at Dr. John Champlin Glacier Park . Through playful discovery\, gentle guidance\, and curiosity-driven exploration\, we will search for stones\, glacial erratics\, and other rocky clues that reveal how glaciers once shaped Rhode Island’s landscape. Along the way\, young naturalists will practice careful observation\, deepen their connection to the region’s ancient geology\, and uncover the hidden stories carried in the stones scattered across our preserve. \n\nPrograms are NO COST thanks to generous community support\nRegistration is required for all participants\nAn adult must accompany their child/children during program. This is a great way to adventure together!\nCar pooling is ideal for this sight. Parking instructions will be emailed out closer to the program date.\n\nAbout the Hosts \nWildRoots Play is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to creating a community where children and families can nurture connection\, holistic development\, and Earth stewardship through immersive experiences in nature and play. \nThe Westerly Land Trust (WLT) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to conserving open space\, revitalizing neighborhoods\, and building community in Westerly\, Rhode Island.

SUMMARY:Land Leaders
DESCRIPTION:A student-led event where young learners share the knowledge and skills they’ve gained through hands-on experiences with the land.\n\n\nJoin us for Land Leaders\, a hands-on family adventure where kids become the teachers! Inspired by WLT’s Living Laboratories after-school programs\, students will guide their families through exciting exploration stations\, featuring everything from microscopes and binoculars to nature art\, hiking\, and more. \nAs you visit each station\, you’ll explore together\, talk about what you’re seeing\, and collect stamps for your adventure passport. Students get to share what they’ve learned\, and adults get a window into how they experience the world around them. \nThis event is all about connection: adult to student\, family to land\, and community to conservation. \nKnow Before You Go! \n\nPrograms are NO COST thanks to generous community support.\nOpen to all ages!\nRegistration is required for all participants.\nAn adult must accompany their child/children during the program. This is a great opportunity to adventure together!\nParking is available in the main lot at Barlow Nature Preserve\, with overflow parking in the field behind the outbuildings to the east (up the farm road).\nThis program will be both inside and outside.
