2025 Winter Showcase Series: Exploring the City of Foley’s Graham Creek Nature Preserve

Join the Park Rangers from Graham Creek Nature Preserve in Foley, Alabama, as they present an in-depth look at the preserve’s development, educational initiatives, and unique approach to conservation. Discover how Graham Creek was formed and the vital role it plays in the local community. Attendees will learn about our dynamic education programs, supported by creative fundraising events such as our popular Haunted Forest and Christmas Trails. These events bring the community together and help fund our educational outreach efforts.
We’ll also discuss how prescribed fire is used across the preserve to restore and maintain the natural landscape, promoting biodiversity and ecological health. Additionally, we’ll showcase our thriving bee aviary, funded through grant initiatives, and bring along an observation hive to give participants a firsthand look at the fascinating world of bees.
