About this event

Event lasts 4 hours

Bring your lawn chairs and your lunch for a lovely morning by the Patuxent with Fred Tutman, the Patuxent Riverkeeper. Fred was born and raised along the Patuxent River as were seven generations of his ancestors before him. He is among the longest serving Waterkeepers in the Chesapeake region and the only African-American Waterkeeper in the nation.

We'll bird along the Patuxent and may pay a visit to the active farm that has been Fred's ancestral home for more than a century.

Carpooling options on registration. Please indicate whether you can provide or need a ride.
