We have published our summer schedule of activities at the Rockcastle River Demonstration Site! (About 6 miles south of Livingston, KY, 2 miles from I-75 exit 49).

ASPI is excited to host the inaugural event of the new Rockcastle Natural Wonder Series - a monthly program to enrich us with knowledge and the experiences of all of the nature of Rockcastle County.  The Kick-Off will include guided hikes of the Zalla Trail - focussing on the mesophytic cove forest, information from several conservancy programs, an interactive display about wild edibles, and ecology and family fun activities.  June 21st - from 10:00 - 2:00 - we'll have the Mary E. Fritsch Nature Center 
open, as well as the Cordwood House for tours.

Other activities this summer include:  
Reading in the Woods Series for young children (pre-school to early elementary)
Fairy Houses and Eleven Forts
Native Pollinators for home gardeners and backyard naturalists
Arthropods!

We are also hosting a volunteer day - Volunteers and Veggies - help us maintain the site - trails, buildings, grounds (wherever your talent lies), bring a sandwich and a water bottle, and we'll provide lots of veggie sides!

See Workshops, Classes, and More for the details of each program.

I've visited the Rockcastle River Demonstration Site and saw the upcoming activities that you will be having. I am really excited to see how things will unfold since there are couples of activities that you will be having. If we are going to think of it, you should have a lot of people so you can pull it off. But I believe that with resources that you have, you will surely come up with a blast of activities that will surely be pleasing for people!
