Landscapes and Runoff Field Trip
Investigate which type of soil is the best at filtering runoff with a hands-on experiment. Test the water for pollution, and look up close at indicator species like frogs and dragonflies.
Landscapes and Runoff is a part of a two-part program series with 1x in-class program and 1x field trip program. You may choose to book only the in-class or field trip program, but we recommend booking both for deeper engagement.
This field trip is available at all of our Metro South Sanctuaries which include the Blue Hills Trailside Museum, the Museum of American Bird Art, Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary, and Stony Brook Wildlife Sanctuary.
