The Spring Wildflower Challenge is a budding new challenge that will submerge you in nature and increase your awareness of all living things. Each youth will be tasked with identifying wildflowers, birds, insects, fungi, and animals in this challenge. The easy-to-use logbook breaks down how all living things coexist in balance and harmony with each other to create thriving biologically diverse ecosystems right here in New Hampshire.
Youth will gain and deepen their understanding of how energy flows from the sun and cycles through all plants, animals, and fungi. They will use their senses to explore and strengthen a more intimate relationship with nature. Additionally, youth who participate in this challenge will be more active, soak up “green time” & fresh air, and get more in touch with their Wildside!
The logbooks for Wildside Challenges use a lot of ink. You are welcome to print them at home. However, we are promoting this challenge early so that we can print the logbook and send it to you. Register now so you can have plenty of time to receive the logbook and map out where you want to explore. The challenge begins on Earth Day, Monday, April 22nd and ends on June 30th. All youth who complete the challenge will earn a limited-edition Spring Wildflower Challenge patch. Youth who complete 3 Wildside challenges within a program year will receive a Wildside T-shirt.
