You asked, and we listened! After the amazing turnout and energy from our last Touch Grasss hike, we’re running it back — this time at Jesse H. Jones Park & Nature Center!

Join us for a refreshing morning of movement, nature, good conversation, and even better company.

Whether you’re coming to get your steps in, explore a new trail, meet new people, or simply spend a Saturday morning away from your screen, this hike is all about doing exactly what Touch Grasss was created for:

Disconnecting to reconnect.

And just like our last hike, we’re not sending you home hungry.

Water will be provided
Light snacks will be available
And YES… the post-hike tacos are coming back!

Come solo. Bring a friend. Meet somebody new.

Just come ready to touch some grass.

• Hear important trail and safety information

9:00 AM — WE HIT THE TRAIL

The hike begins promptly at 9:00 AM.

After making our way back, stick around!

We’ll have tacos, light snacks, and water available while everyone cools down, catches up, takes pictures, and enjoys some additional time together.

🌮 Breakfast Tacos

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be an experienced hiker?

Not at all! This is a social group hike, not a race or competition. You don’t need to consider yourself a “hiker” to participate. Come ready to move your body, enjoy nature, and meet some good people. Final route and mileage information will be shared with registered attendees.

What time do I need to arrive?

Please arrive at 8:30 AM. Although the official hike is from 9:00–11:00 AM, 8:30 gives us enough time to get everyone checked in, gathered, stretched, and prepared. Our goal is to begin hiking promptly at 9:00 AM. Please plan your drive and parking time accordingly.

Do I need to bring water?

We will have water available for attendees, but you’re always welcome to bring your own reusable water bottle or additional water. Staying hydrated is important, so please make sure you have water with you while on the trail.

Will food be provided?

YES! We’re bringing back one of our favorite parts of the last hike — post-hike tacos! Water and light snacks will also be provided. Food is intended as a light post-hike refreshment rather than a full meal, so plan accordingly.

Can I come by myself?

Absolutely — we encourage it! You do not need to already know someone in Touch Grasss to participate. A big part of these hikes is creating an easy, low-pressure environment where you can meet people naturally while doing something active together. Come alone. You won’t be hiking alone.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable athletic clothing and supportive walking or hiking shoes. We also recommend dressing for Houston weather and checking the forecast before leaving home. This is an outdoor activity, so expect to sweat!

What should I bring?

Keep it simple: • Comfortable walking/hiking shoes • Water bottle if desired • Sunscreen • Bug spray • Hat and/or sunglasses • Small towel if needed • Any personal necessities you may need during the hike • Good energy Try to pack lightly since you’ll be carrying your belongings throughout the hike.

The hike will take place at: Jesse H. Jones Park & Nature Center 20634 Kenswick Dr Humble, TX 77338 Registered attendees will receive any additional instructions regarding parking and the exact Touch Grasss meeting location before the event. Please check your event updates before heading out.

How long is the trail?

The final route and mileage will be communicated to registered attendees once confirmed. The experience is scheduled from 9:00 AM–11:00 AM, including our hike and return.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Because this is an outdoor event, weather conditions may affect our plans. If weather requires us to delay, modify, or make other changes to the hike, registered attendees will be notified. Please keep an eye on event communications as September 19 approaches.

Will photos and videos be taken?

Yes! Touch Grasss may capture photos and videos throughout the hike and post-hike gathering for social media and future event content. Come camera ready if that’s your thing.
