🎶 Immersive sound baths to soothe the mind, open the heart, and invite deep inner peace
🌕 Hiking, including a nighttime walk to explore the forest’s quiet magic
🔥 Campfire-cooked fruit desserts and, laughter and connection by firelight
🥗 Wholesome meals that nourish from the inside out
🏕 Cozy camping along the river, with time to rest, reflect, and just be

Join us for a bird walk at the Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve, a diverse 695-acre treasure in the heart of Loudoun County. This is a birding hotspot because the preserve’s streams, trees, shrubs and fields attract many species of birds. Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy and the Friends of Banshee Reeks team up to help you see what birds are visiting. This is a regular outing that takes place the second Saturday of every month. Bring binoculars if you have them.
Questions: Contact Joe Coleman at jcoleman@loudounwildlife.org.

Did you know that fall is the best time to plant trees, shrubs and other perennials? A huge selection of native plants will be available from five native plant nurseries: Nature By Design, Hill House Farm & Nursery, Seven Bends Nursery, Watermark Woods and Yellow House Natives. The Sale takes place at the visitor parking lot (access via main entrance on Old Waterford Road). Our knowledgeable volunteers will be on hand to help you choose plants suited to your space and goals. We’ll also have TLC, a fertilizer and deer deterrent, to give away.

At Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy’s information booth you can learn about our programs and how you can volunteer for them. Our Wild Shop will be there with merchandise for sale. Want to learn more about some of our community partners? Be sure to stop by their booths: The American Chestnut Foundation; Blue Ridge PRISM, Loudoun Invasive Removal Alliance, Loudoun County Master Gardeners; Virginia Native Plant Society (Piedmont Chapter); and, Virginia Master Naturalists (Banshee Reeks Chapter). Magee Design will also have a booth.
