REDWOOD â The education committee of the Indian River Lakes Conservancy has created a holiday story walk using Eve Buntingâs âNight Treeâ childrenâs book as a theme.
The story walk is open daily at the conservancyâs Redwood Hill Preserve until 8 p.m. through Christmas day.
In âNight Tree,âa young boy and his family, under the moonlight in a quiet forest, decorate their favorite tree with popcorn, apples, tangerines and sunflower-seed balls as a gift for the animals of the woods.
The preserve is located at 44010 Stine Road, Redwood.
The best viewing hours are between 5 and 8 p.m. to enjoy the ambiance of the lights that are part of the story walk. The conservancy says the walk is for all ages and encourages visitors to bring bird-friendly tree decorations to hang on the tree (just like the family did in the âNight Treeâ story).
