Happy Trails Day!
Every step on a Flanders trail helps deepen our connection to conservation, wildlife, and the landscapes we protect together.

06/05/2026

A perfect reason to lace up tonight! Today is World Environment Day, a reminder of how important it is to protect the places that sustain us. At Flanders, that work happens every day — in our forests, fields, wetlands, and wildlife habitats.

When you join us for the Field & Forest 5K tonight, you’re not just running a race.
You’re supporting the conservation of the very trails, meadows, and woodlands beneath your feet.

Every step helps protect:

Local wildlife habitats

Healthy forests and clean air

Open space for future generations

Trails our community can enjoy all year

If you’ve been meaning to sign up, World Environment Day is the perfect nudge.

We are accepting same day registration in person only! Come early and run together for the land we love!

It’s race day!
The trails are marked, the shirts are ready, and the fields are glowing in early summer light. Tonight we gather for one of Woodbury’s favorite traditions — the Flanders Field & Forest 5K, a trail run and walk through protected land that your participation helps care for.

Run it, walk it, or cheer from the sidelines — every step supports conservation and outdoor education at Flanders.

📍 Start: 6:00 PM at the Flanders Sugar House
🎉 Post‑race celebration: Food trucks, music, and local brews
💙 Registration: flandersnaturecenter.org/5k Same Day registration available in person only!

Bring your energy, your friends, and your love for the land. See you on the trails tonight!
