Join Nature Guelph Wildflower for a spring ephemeral walk in Victoria Woods searching for these fascinating plants. Spring ephemerals literally “make hay while the sun shines.” Growing deep in the shade of the forest, these plants must flower, set seed and store food in the short six weeks between snow melt and tree leaf out. We will take photos and log our findings on iNaturalist as part of Guelph’s City Nature Challenge.
For the first time, Guelph is taking part in the City Nature Challenge, a worldwide community-based citizen science project. Local residents are asked to make observations in their neighbourhoods and green spaces and share those observations on iNaturalist during the four-day period.
