Join hike leader Nanette Hanks on August 19th for a “Trail in Two Cities” hike. We will meet at 9:30 am at Longfellow Grill in Minneapolis (the first city of the west) and hike along the Mississippi River crossing over to St. Paul (the last city of the east) to circle back to our starting point. This hike will be about 5 miles total along paved paths at a moderate pace.  Plan to stay after the hike for lunch at the Longfellow Grill!  Great outdoor seating and a delightful menu.

Cabinets of Curiosities will seek out the University of Minnesota Herbarium on the St Paul Campus.  Tim Whifeld, Collections Manager, will share his knowledge of that amazing collection and explain its critical importance in the twenty-first century. Botanists study these pressed plants, individually and collectively, to establish a history of plant life, often over centuries, because they contain compelling evidence of the ever modulating geographical distribution of plants and evidence of how climate, pests, and other factors have changed species over time.
