Grasse River Heritage
Community Water Monitoring and Ecology Walk
Join Grasse River Heritage for our July Walk in the Park event - a water monitoring and ecology walk at Heritage Park with Nature Up North! We’ll walk the Heritage Park loop and talk about the ecology of the Grasse River - who lives in the river and even in the park itself! Then we’ll work together to collect data for Nature Up North's citizen science project, MOW the Grasse.
The Whimsy Walk - Grasse River Heritage
Join Grasse River Heritage to celebrate the kick-off of two months of nature related "whimsies" visiting Heritage Park!
Fall Foliage Fun
Have you ever wondered about the magic behind the changing leaf colors that is such an important part of our fall season here in the North Country? Are you looking for an opportunity to slow down and enjoy the foliage during a walk along the Grasse River? Then you don't want to miss this Walk in the Park hosted by Grasse River Heritage and Nature Up North. We'll talk about the science behind leaf change and fall, and do some hands-on projects along the way. This walk is open to all ages, but is especially great for families!
