During the beautiful month of October on the Katy Trail, Friends of the Katy Trail has a goal to add 30 new or renewing members . Please consider making your membership donation today to support the essentials and amenities you enjoy on the Trail.
As an added incentive to join or renew this month, everyone who makes a membership gift during October will be entered for a chance to win one of two gift basket prizes!
The large Gift Basket includes gift cards and products from Katy Trail Ice House, Harwood restaurants, Katy Trail Station, K18 hair products, Kendra Scott earrings, Hollywood Feed, D Magazine, Bang and 3E energy drinks, Cliff bars, and Katy Trail branded coasters and cups. The Central Market basket is a "Texas" theme basket.
Thank you to all the generous local businesses and Trail partners that donated to these baskets!

What's Blooming on the Katy Trail
Mexican Plum Tree
Mexican Plum Tree fruits are showy yellow, and orange, and when they drop, their color changes to purple with blue overtones.
Rose of Sharon
Hibiscus syriacus isn't a rose, but its large, flat blossoms and nectar attract hummingbirds and tiny insects that hummers also eat. The flowers on this woody shrub come in several colors, including white, pink, purple, and red.
