Friends of the Nature Preserve
The Friends of the Nature Preserve is a group of Binghamton University
faculty, staff and students as well as local community members who care
about the future of the remaining natural areas on campus as well as in
Broome County. The Friends plan hikes and other events throughout the
year to explore the Nature Preserve and learn about its history and
ecology. Past hikes have celebrated the full moon, fall colors, the
emergence of amphibians in the spring and other seasonal highlights.
Other hikes, guided by the Friends, have been aimed at educating the
local community about the Preserve. The Friends also serve the
important role of habitat management and trail maintenance, from
cutting down invasive plants to building boardwalks, putting down wood
chips and clearing fallen trees from the trails. The Friends of the
Nature Preserve meetings are open to anyone who loves nature. Meetings
are held once or twice a semester and will be posted in Events.
For more information and to be added to the e-mail list send an e-mail
to Dylan Horvath at naturepr@binghamton.edu.
