Led by the Trust for Governors Island’s horticulture team along with CCNY Insect Ecology Professor Amy Berkov, these monthly tours will take participants on a journey through the young urban forest of Hammock Grove and the immersive spaces at Outlook Hill and Discovery Hill. You’ll get to learn about these resilient, built landscapes directly from the people who know them best, and get the chance to participate in different community science projects.

Governors Island Nature Walks are free and open to all and are held entirely outdoors on Governors Island. July’s tour will depart from the east side of Discovery Hill, near Slide Hill (click here for directions). Ferry tickets are not included with this reservation and can be reserved separately at govisland.org/ferry.
