How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

Public area. When flowers are in bloom the bees maybe abundant, please be careful. Though there is a ramp up to the area where the cache is, I am not sure how handicap accessible this cache is.

Seed Exchange: The idea here is to bring a package of your favorite seeds and trade them for packages that others have left. We will replenish as we can with Texas Wildflower seed packages. I hope this works out.

I have been told that there are times when yellow-jackets and bees are around so be wary of grabbing this cache. Please do not walk through the plants to get this cache it isn’t that hard to get to with a little thought.
