On Saturday, May 6th Jason Larson of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources will be leading a hike through the Bartholomew County park. The mile and a half long walk will visit the 44-acre state nature preserve in the park.

According to the state, the Nature Conservancy originally purchased the property in 1977. It has been managed and operated as a county park and natural area since then.

The park is on County Road 1140E near Hartsville and the hike will head out at 10:30. You should dress for the mud and weather and be prepared to cross a low-water stream.
