Gulf Coast native prairie is one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world. The Almeda Road Nature Reserve is 45 acres of previously undiscovered Gulf Coast native prairie. It is home to more than 50 species of prairie plants. The Nature Heritage Society- Houston will lead attendees on a short hike to the reserve’s native prairie restoration site. Along the hike, guides will discuss facts about the park, ecological features, history and Indigenous pre-history.
The Houston Audubon will focus on birds as an indicator species for ecological crisis.
The Almeda Nature Reserve is located across the street from 15117 Almeda School Rd., Houston 77047.
It is suggested that all participants wear long pants and hiking boots if they have them or good sneakers with ankle support. Umbrellas to help with blocking the sun are also recommended.
Thank you to our partners at Harris County Precinct One.
