Native Subsistence

We have few swamps around Omaha – even fewer than when I was a small boy sauntering wildly on summer days. But we do have a wild place from which to derive our subsistence. Come and saunter with us at Hitchcock Nature Center on Saturday mornings in July. See details under the Summer Saunters post below.

Saunter on,
