Free Guided Wildflower Tours at Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge
This fall, Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge invites you and your family to join us for FREE guided tours featuring two different topics: birds and wildflowers. In September, many late-blooming wildflowers unfold their petals creating an array of warm colors and textures and a beautiful scene as they decorate the oak savanna landscape. We invite you to join us for our two upcoming annual guided tours.
Wildflower Tour on Saturday, September 8, 10:00am to 12:00pm, Oak Savanna Learning Center
The fall Wildflower Tour will be held on Saturday, September 9, beginning at 10:00am. Meet your guide, Refuge Volunteer Robin DeLong, at the Oak Savanna Learning Center (16797 289th Ave. NW, Zimmerman, MN 55398) to begin the car caravan tour. This tour will consist of driving and walking short distances to see a variety of fall blooms.
For both tours, please wear weather appropriate clothing and close-toed shoes and, if you choose, bring binoculars, camera, field guides, water, a snack, sunscreen, and bug spray. Be advised that poison ivy is common on the refuge.
