Wildflower Tours

Take a complimentary stroll through Tandy Hills Natural Area with native plant experts from the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge and the Texas Master Naturalist program. Come witness and learn about the beauty of nature untouched by the human hand. Wildflower Walks will be conducted on demand by trained Master Naturalists and staff members from the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge.

The wildflower tours are organized by Suzanne Tuttle, Manager of the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge. She will also be leading groups on the day of Prairie Fest.
