Take a fall hike at the Leonard Preserve

submitted by Quintessa Gallinat, Manchester District Library

Embrace fall at the Leonard Preserve on Thursday, October 23, to document in nature journals the changes throughout fall. Meet Manchester District Library staff at the Leonard Preserve parking lot at 3pm, head out on a nature hike, document your findings in nature journals, and share what you discovered. Pocket nature journals, pencils, and colored pencils will be provided. All ages welcome.

The Leonard Preserve is located at N Union St, Manchester, MI 48158. Please dress for the weather and bring a snack and water. If it rains, the group will meet on October 30 instead. Another hike is planned for November 13.
