Travel back in time with the Greenacres Education team during this hands-on fossil-hunting adventure! We’ll hike to the creek and explore exposed rock beds in search of 450-million-year-old Ordovician fossils, including bryozoans, brachiopods, and other ancient marine life. Along the way, participants will learn how our modern creek ecosystem is still influenced by the ocean that once covered this land.

This program is designed for school-aged children ages 7 and up and is a great way to engage young explorers in local geology, ecology, and natural history.
