Bird Walk at Michigan Wildflower Farm, 11770 Cutler Rd, Portland, MI 48875. Saturday, Sept. 26 @ 10:00 am. Guests are welcome to arrive by 9:45 am.

We'll meet by the large, gray pole barn at the end of the driveway where parking is also available.

Join board member, Katie Layman, for a bird walk around MWF and to learn about the role MWF plays in helping reintroduce native plants across Michigan.
The walk will be moderate, with the possibility of muddy uneven trails depending on the weather. If the weather is really poor, (sustained rain or high winds) we will cancel the walk. Please check your email or our page for cancellations. Bathroom facilities are available at the farm.
