Birds Along the Greene River Trail
While on the Greene River Trail, take the opportunity to see a variety of wildlife – including birds!
Along the Greene River Trail
If you have been on the Greene River Trail recently, you might have noticed something new. Twenty informational signs were placed along the trail highlighting coal mining, the W.A. Young & Sons Foundry and Machine Shop, the Monongahela River, and wildlife.
Each week, we will release a new blog highlighting one of the signs you will find along the Greene River Trail. Follow along with us – or head out to the trail and see the signs for yourself!
Counting Birds for Valentine’s Day
The Valentine’s Day weekend of February 12 through the 15, gives everyone a chance to count birds for science. The Great Backyard Bird Count asks watchers to spend at least 15 minutes counting the birds around the neighborhood. That includes kids itching for a chance to go outside, then coming back in and using their computer to tell Cornell University what they saw.
The Indian Trail Tree
We have our share of Native American Sites to be sure. Burial grounds, carved and painted rocks and caves. But there is one amazing artifact that remains that’s been overlooked in all the histories, guide books and in our own living memory. The Indian Trail Tree.
When Creeks are Low – Paddle the Mon!
With the efforts of a group of intrepid volunteers, Greene County’s only canoe/kayak launch on the Mon has been restored and strengthened in Greensboro. Its name – Potters Landing – is a nod to the pottery that once made this old river town famous.
