Lucy Meigs

Lucy Meigs is passionate about sharing her love of the natural world with others through immersive activities and stories to connect young people to nature. Early in the season, she leads annual springtime adventures, aka Frog Friday Rambles. Her curricular programs include: Finding Roots; Plant or Fungi?;Mountain-Laurel-Small Flowers; and Wildflowers and Nature Connections. She instructs children about vernal pool ecology and finding clues about who lives in the woods. She offers fascinating details about local plants and creatures found in ponds; the children leave knowing how to study water under scopes. Additionally, she teaches local geology as well as history of the indigenous people of the Middletown area.
