Have a kid that is curious about nature and loves to draw? Join Arboretum Naturalist Christa Wise for a family nature journaling hike! We will teach the fundamentals of how to create and keep a nature journal with activities tailored to kids. Each hike will cover a different theme, so repeat hikers are always welcome. All you need for these hikes is a sketchbook and something to write with – but feel free to bring your preferred supplies. Kids must sign up with at least one adult for this hike.

The following is a list of topics for each program:

  • July - Forests: Exploring all that the forest has to offer
  • August - Fields: Exploring meadow habitats and their diversity

*Maximum 18 people. Children 14 and under must be accompanied by an adult who is also registered for the hike.

The land where The Arboretum now grows has been home to plants and animals for thousands of years. It was home to Indigenous peoples long before settlers arrived. We recognize the traditional, ancestral, and treaty lands of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, Attawandaron, and Mississaugas of the Credit peoples, as well as the Dish with One Spoon covenant covering the Between the Lakes Treaty 3 lands on which the University of Guelph and The Arboretum now sit. We are honoured to work on and care for this land.
