Events

Join us on October 12th, 2024, for Beidler Forest's first ever bioblitz! By helping us catelogue all the species of plants and animals that live here you're helping us by broadening our understanding of the local habitats and how to protect it.

Guided by a Beidler Forest naturalist, these family-friendly (and kid-approved!) night programs will take you out on the boardwalk, deep into the swamp, during the new moon of each month.

We offer scheduled guided tours along our 1.75 mile boardwalk to the public on select days.

Beidler is a visually rich place, and you can help us showcase that. This contest is for anyone and everyone, complete with prizes and overly critical acclaim.

In late spring to early summer fireflies fill Beidler Forest with pulsing illumination. Multiple species can be seen at once, each with their own pattern. Want to see this spectacle for yourself?
