Flora Foray: Capital District Wildlife Management Area, Center Berlin

Bogs and fens (peatlands) are special habitats with their own unique set of plants, from orchids to carnivores. There are two high quality peatlands that we will look at on this excursion, one a poor fen, and the other something close to a bog. (We will discuss the differences!) Both sites are wet and we will be off trail so wear tall boots or shoes that you can get wet. There are no facilities.

*Please note this walk takes place on the fourth Sunday of the month, not the usual third.
**Use the first parking area on Miller Road south of Taborton Rd, at the junction of Cherry Plain State Park Road
