SUMMARY:Story Trail Walk: We Are Water Protectors

SUMMARY:Story Trail Walk: Run Wild
DESCRIPTION:Read a family-friendly book while walking through the woods. Follow the illustrated signs along the trail as they tell a tale that connects you to your natural surroundings. The free 1-mile story trail starts from the Oak Point Farm parking lot kiosk and can be completed at your own pace and on your own time. The current story trail features the read-aloud book “Run Wild”\, written and illustrated by David Covell. \nThis lushly illustrated ode to outdoor play and nature should inspire even the most reluctant couch potato to get out and “run wild.” Full spreads in bold\, impressionistic pen-and-ink and watercolor images reflect the movement and freedom of the outdoors. \nThe story trail at Oak Point Farm is open year-round during daylight hours\, with a new book posted every four to five weeks. Current book titles and dates will be updated on our website.
