Barnes Woods Nature Preserve

Barnes Woods Nature Preserve

Barnes Woods Preserve is the perfect example of why I blog about our adventures. This place doesn’t show up as a green blob on Google (my standard for finding outdoor adventures), there is NO info when you search for it and it isn’t even on Ecodelaware’s website. The only street address that we came up […]

Despite that, we’ve still been heading out for some adventures. The […]

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

May 29, 2021 By Becca Leave a Comment

What kind of mental picture do you get when you think of Philadelphia? Big cities are such a juxtaposition between beauty and filth in my personal opinion. Everywhere you look there are piles of trash, graffiti, and dilapidated buildings. Philly has more than its' fair share of those things BUT it … [Read More...]
