Join us for a beginner friendly walk to see why the Mesquite Tree is the centerpiece of the Sonoran Desert. This amazing and humble tree is crucial for the survival of other desert plants and animals. Learn how the Indigenous peoples who lived here 1000 years ago relied on it for food, medicine, and shelter.
Children are welcome when accompanied by an adult. Wear good shoes, a hat, and sunscreen, and bring water.
