Join Friends of the Walkway Environmental Educator Clara Lima as they introduce participants to the importance of native plants and their role in supporting healthy local ecosystems. Through a hands-on seed bomb activity, kids will learn how native seeds can help restore habitats and provide food and shelter for pollinators and wildlife. This interactive experience will help everyone understand the simple, impactful ways anyone – even youngsters – can make a difference on the environment right in their own communities.
Clara supports youth programming focused on connecting students to local ecology, history, and community through hands-on learning. They have been involved in developing and leading interactive programs, including the pilot Interactive Youth Program at Walkway Over the Hudson, helping inspire the next generation of environmental stewards.
All Walkway Connections events are free to attend and appropriate for all ages. Walkway Connections is supported in part by the Maurice D. Hinchey Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area and The M&T Charitable Foundation.
