JK Black Oak Wildlife Sanctuary Open House

Visit the Sanctuary during its first “open house”.  Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy has invited our JK Black Oak partners, The Nature Conservancy, Land Trust of Virginia, and Lucketts Ruritans, to showcase their organizations and contributions to JK Black Oak. This will give you an opportunity to learn more about the wetlands mitigation project, conservation easements, and community involvement.  We’ll also have information about some of the citizen science projects taking place on the property. Every half hour from 10:30am to 1:00pm, we will lead short nature walks so you can experience the property firsthand, enjoy its beauty, and learn more about the vernal pools and the creatures they support.  No registration required.

Parking will be in the field at the corner of Stumptown and New Valley Church Roads in Lucketts, and a volunteer will direct you to the entrance of the Sanctuary.

To protect the environmentally sensitive habitat and rare species, the Sanctuary is not open for general public access, and can only be visited during events such as this one.
