More About Friends of RHP Wildflower Hike
Spring wildflowers are in bloom throughout Richfield Heritage Preserve and to help people enjoy them, the Friends of Richfield Heritage Preserve (Friends) are sponsoring a guided hike on Sunday, April 26, 2026, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. at the park. Participants will use the 3771 Oviatt Road park entrance (by the Oviatt House off St. Rt. 303). Led by plant ecologist Jennifer Windus, Ohio Natural Areas and Preserves Association President and the Ohio Invasive Plant Council Vice President, the woodland walk will feature her insights on protecting our park's native species and the importance of their role in the natural life of RHP. The loop trail hike will travel through one of the most scenic sections of the park.
Participants are asked to meet shortly before 1:00 p.m. at the kiosk located near Kirby’s Mill and to dress for the weather. Suitable hiking footwear, insect repellant and a reusable water bottle are recommended. While the event is free and open to the public, attendees are asked to RSVP via Eventbrite at Click for Details. Walk-ins, however, are always welcome. In the event of heavy rain or a thunderstorm, the hike will be cancelled. Visit the Friends’ website at friendsofrhp.org for event updates and additional information.
