Third Thursday Treks
February 19 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm CST

Punxsutawney Phil the Groundhog decided we would see SIX MORE WEEKS of winter in 2026! Did the plants in the forest get the memo?
During the February Third Thursday Trek, we’ll take a peek into the science of plant spring phenology.
If you’ve ever been dazzled at the fresh green after a long winter, join us to get up close and personal with buds!
Trek surfaces may include paved road, limestone gravel trail, and Old Forest natural trails with uneven surfaces.

Overton Park Conservancy is the nonprofit organization that has been caring for Memphis’s central green space since 2012. With the generous support of our community, we work each day to make the park a beautiful and welcoming place for all Memphians, as well as a valuable source of urban habitat for wildlife.
The Conservancy must raise roughly 85% of our budget each year from people like you who care about the many things Overton Park has to offer. A gift of any amount helps us maintain and improve the park.
