New York Shirley Chisholm Hike

Hikerkind Hike Club has teamed up with our friends at Graza for a hike on Saturday, September 28th, in Shirley Chisholm State Park. The trail will guide us through a varied landscape of wildflower meadows, native grasslands, hidden beaches, and bustling fishing piers. After we meet in Brooklyn, we’ll discover this city-adjacent naturescape together.

Hikers will enjoy delicious treats this month made possible by our generous partners: Graza, Forager Project, Rind, Repurpose.

Sun & bug protection by Kinfield, and drinks provided by Topo Chico.

After the hike, enjoy a snack from Daily Crunch Snacks.

Take less and do more. We've partnered with Gossamer Gear to give three lucky hikers a chance to win top-notch gear at our September hikes.
