Middlefork Savanna Workday – Lake County
September 23 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join the magic at Middlefork! Volunteers will collect seeds of spring wildflowers as they are ripe and scout for invasive species for treatment. We'll also walk and talk about the ecological significance of this beautiful site and enjoy the rare plants!
RSVP and questions directed to middleforksavannavolunteers@gmail.com
Things to know before you come:
- If you are not fully vaccinated, wear a mask if unable to social distance from others at the site.
- Bring water and a snack. Dress for the wilderness – this should include sturdy boots or shoes, a hat, bug spray, and sunscreen. Long pants and a long sleeve shirt are suggested.
- We work hard, but at our own pace, and we often take breaks to share snacks and share ideas and nature with each other.
