🥾 Spring wildflower hikes are very popular and rightly so, but Fall wildflower hikes are nice as well.
🌻 They are also instructive for what native pollinators and beneficial insects should have available in my own garden at this time of year.
💮 The path of my recent hike in South Mountains State Park was full of asters, which come in many shapes colors.
Snakeroot (from the aster family!)
Calico Aster, pale purple rays and
Calico Aster, white rays (in forest shade)Asters are very important for insects and wildlife in the Eastern U.S.

Prepping a tent I haven't used in years, 'cause I'm headed to South Mountains State Park next week. My ultralight tent was damaged in high winds during my ill-fated trip to the barrier island weeks ago.
Most trails at SMSP have just reopened since #HurricaneHelene. I'll see what damage remains. Unfortunately, none of the Mtn bike trails are open, but I have my trusty hiking boots itching to tromp on the ground.
