Swipe through for some serene scenes from today’s Spring in Arcadia botanizing walk! 🌸 🌿 Biologist Denise Poyer guided us along the beautiful Ben Utter Trail in Exeter, pointing out botanical treasures including nodding trillium, Jack-in-the-pulpit (the inspiration for RIWPS’ logo!), starflower, pink lady slipper, cucumber root, and pink azalea. 💧Fun fact: Denise was the author of the Wild and Scenic Rivers designation for the Falls River, which runs along the trail!
