What could be better than a springtime stroll in Cherry Hill Park on a Saturday morning?
The Farmers Market in full swing, the sound of children at play, trees blooming and scenting the air . . .
And, on this particular Saturday morning, May 11, an additional pleasure for the senses! You will have the opportunity to amble around Cherry Hill Park at your leisure and peruse all 67 “HerStory” stations of the Falls Church Women’s History Walk, installed throughout the park. Prepare to be inspired!
But, that is not all! You will also have the opportunity in the morning to experience the Falls Church Garden Club’s Annual Plant Sale at the Community Center to learn about native plants and butterflies and to find something wonderful to bring home and plant in your garden!
The Details
Open from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., the Falls Church Women’s History Walk is a self-guided stroll throughout Cherry Hill Park.
