As part of the City Nature Challenge, we have partnered with Severson Dells to host an evening of plant identification! Bring your family to learn more about the nature right here in Rockford.
The City Nature Challenge is a worldwide movement to document nature and help fight biodiversity loss! Every observation you make of WILD nature is a data point that helps scientists and researchers understand and protect nature for all of us.
