Field Trips

The DNPS normally schedules at least 2 or 3 field trips each year. Past field trips have gone to the botanically rich Trap Pond, the floristically varied Cape Henlopen State Park, and vegetatively unique pine barrens in Pennsylvania. We also like to do kayak/canoe trips as they are always a great way to see sections of habitat that one can’t normally get to on foot.
Plans for 2008 include a caravan to members homes to see their unique backyard habitats, a kayak/canoe trip, and trips to a rich woods forest, and to see spring ephemerals in New Castle County.
If you have any suggestions for a field trip, or would like to lead one, please contact us. We are always looking for knowledgeable leaders and interesting places.
