Pre-Party Special Event Honoring our Shining Stars

  • Pines and Prairies Land Trust McDade, TX (map)

We're excited to celebrate our incredible volunteers and members of our Prairie Partners monthly donor circle at a special appreciation event before our much-anticipated Star Party!

Our volunteers and Prairie Partners’ dedication and support are at the heart of our mission to conserve and restore the lands we all cherish. Whether through hands-on stewardship or ongoing financial contributions, they help protect the natural beauty of our Texas prairies and forests for future generations. This is a small way of showing our appreciation.

Activities Include:

  • Guided Forest Bathing: Reconnect with nature and recharge in the peaceful embrace of the Yegua Knobbs forest.

  • Taking it Easy on the Easy Knobb: Enjoy a gentle stroll along one of our favorite trails, and enjoy the view from the top of the Easy Knobb.

  • Yaupon Tea Ceremony: Experience a unique tea ritual honoring the Texas landscape.

Afterward, stick around for one of our most popular events — the Star Party — as we marvel at the beauty of the cosmos!

What to bring: Backpacks, water, blankets or yoga mats to sit on, and a favorite mug for the tea ceremony.

Facilities: there is no running water on the preserve, but we do have a composting toilet outhouse!

Parking: Park at the entrance to the Sandylands Trail or along the northern fence line
