Among the native species found at Bluffs is the locally rare Juglans cinerea, commonly called butternut or white walnut. This relative to Juglans nigra, or black walnut, is mostly found on well-drained slopes – such as the ravine at Bluffs. Join us for a morning pulling invasive weeds in support of the ecosystem at Bluffs to benefit native species across the natural area and beyond. Meet us at the park entrance on Orkney.
