Desert Palms Discovery Station at Hassayampa River Preserve (no registration required)

We will have a discovery station down on the trails from where you can learn about the Preserve’s historic stand of California fan palms with staff and volunteers. Learn about how these tropical trees are able to grow in the desert Southwest and their importance to both wildlife and native cultures. Did you know that these palms were sourced from a native population in Arizona? Find out more! No registration required.
