Pre-cut flowers will be available if you don’t want to get your hands dirty foraging for your own.
This event is free for everyone, no RSVP required.

Did you miss the Flying Pig Marathon in Cincinnati this year? Now is your chance to get back on your feet to support a noble cause without going too far from home.

The race will take place at Sycamore Park in Batavia, with the 5K portion on trails through the Wilson Nature Preserve. There will be a shorter walk (0.6 miles) around the park on a paved surface for people of all ages and abilities to participate.
