Revolutionary Nature
What's the connection between Chinese tallow trees on the Katy Prairie and Benjamin Franklin? In celebration of Independence Day, we will explore connections between the living organisms of the Nelson Farms Preserve and the Colonists who founded our nation two hundred and thirty-two years ago. Guests will receive a full-color interpretive guide for their self-guided walk of 'historic' proportions.
