Join SCWF for a Spring Habitat Workshop on Wednesday, May 6th at Harbison State Forest! During this interactive workshop, participants will learn how to create and enhance wildlife habitat by planting native plants, providing a water source, adding feeders and nest boxes, and how their own yards can be certified as a wildlife habitat by the National Wildlife Federation. Following the classroom portion, participants will get to take a tour of Harbison State Forest’s very own Certified Wildlife Habitat and enjoy a short hike through the forest to learn about how forests are managed to help wildlife. Learn more about how to certify your yard here.

Please note that if you wish to stay after the workshop to explore the forest on your own, you will need to purchase a daily permit at the Environmental Education Center.
