Lace up those walking shoes and grab your furry friends! HARTA and Acres Land Trust are kicking off their new monthly themed walk series with a paw-some twist. They’re blending Heart Health Month and Love Your Pet Month for an adventure that will get tails wagging and hearts pumping!

Each month, they’ll explore a fresh theme on a unique trail, featuring guest speakers and partnering with various community organizations. It’s a journey through nature, health and local connections – one step at a time!

The Hearts & Paws Edition: A Trail-Blazing Celebration will be held on Sunday, February 22, at Pehkokia Trail, Acres Nature Preserve, 1570 Flaxmill Road, Huntington, at 4 p.m.

Those attending should expect a fun, heart-healthy hike; insights from Preserve Steward John and surprise speakers from the American Heart Association. The dress code includes both red for you and your pets.

This is a perfect way to show some love for your ticker and your favorite furry friends.
