The Volcan Mountain Foundation turns 25 on October 13, 2013! We are celebrating this quarter-century milestone with our first-ever Founders’ Day event. The entire community is invited to join us from 11am-4:30pm at Menghini Winery (1150 Julian Orchards Drive, Julian, CA 92036).
Summer is a grand time to discover, adventure in, and explore nature at the headwaters of Santa Ysabel Creek shaded by abundant cedars, pines, and oaks. Enjoy three afternoons of free, family-friendly nature programs of short hikes, nature crafts and songs at the Volcan Mountain Foundation Gateway Nature Education Center outdoor classroom from 3-5:30pm. VMF Education Coordinator, Kathleen Beck, and naturalist Greg Hill will lead the group of happy hikers to great heights with their vast experience on naturalist adventures.
What is conservation art? It is an art project that helps to elucidate why we need to conserve, or save, a particular species. In these classes we will be learning what is so unique about our conifer forests. Our living models will show us what is so spectacular about them.
