Take a walk on wild side -- of flowers



SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. -- Celebrate the arrival of spring with a 90-minute wildflower walk at Jennings Environmental Education Center at 2 p.m. May 13.
The Jennings staff will explore the unique history, uses and folklore of the season's first blooms.
For countless generations, wildflowers have been admired and revered for their beauty and usefulness as foods and medicine. American Indians, as well as early European settlers, largely depended on the extraordinary healing powers of wildflowers for common ailments.
Jennings is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays and on weekends as scheduled. The trails are open daily from sunrise to sunset for hiking and other environmentally related activities.
