Sunday, February 4 1pm Learn several different methods to create and maintain a compost pile, which can serve as the foundation for healthy garden soil all year long. Please come prepared to touch dirt! Ages 7+. Free. Registration required. Call (718) 351-3450 or email: naturecenter@sigreenbelt.org Every Wednesday: Join us for our weekly evening, guided hike where we will cover 4/5 miles. There are some small climbs but it's fairly easy. You will probably see parts of the Greenbelt and the trail system that you haven't seen before! A headlamp or flashlight is required. Dress for the weather and trail conditions. Bring water and a snack if you think you'll need it. No reservation is required. We go in all weather unless conditions are dangerous. Always check the Greenbelt Conservancy's Facebook page for updates on changes or cancellations (Cancellations generally only occur in very bad weather). This event is made possible thanks to the generous funding from NYC Council Member, Joseph C. Borelli of the 51st District on Staten Island, as part of the Greener NYC Initiative. – Greenbelt Winter Trail Running Clinics LaTourette Golf Course/Greenbelt Trails 1001 Richmond Hill Road, Staten Island, NY 10306 Join Greenbelt trail runner, Anthony Maranzano, for our group trail running clinics to get you in great running shape for February 24’s Cold Feat 5K and 10K trail race.
