Members of the Nalley Brown Nature Park will be on hand to talk about the property, the benefits of an environmental park and what is planned for the Easley center.
The Board of Trustees for the Nalley Brown Nature Park are opening up the proposed site of an Environmental Education Center, so that the public may learn more about the area.
A field trip to the site will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 19.
Rick Huffman, naturalist and owner of Earth Design, a Landscape Architect Firm, will lead the tour on the City of Easley owned property on Adger Road.
