Special Workday – Seed Collection
July 13, 2019 @ 9:00am–12:00pm
Join us on this special workday to collect spiderwort in the upland prairies and sedges in the wetland.
Even if it is warm, we highly recommend long pants, long sleeves and a hat to protect you from brush and the sun. Since we’ll be working in the wetland, please wear shoes/boots that are appropriate for wet and muddy areas.. Work gloves and insect repellent are also recommended. We will supply all the tools needed, and have some extra gloves if you need them.
If you are in a car, the gate will be open so you can drive in from the County Parking Lot at 4864 Pheasant Branch Road. Please drive slowly up the road, watch for hikers and park in the large, grassy parking lot across from the homestead and the Friends work trailer. There’s also a bike rack for those of you who ride in.
Even if you are not able to stay for the full 3 hours you’re welcome to join us for as long as you can stay.Workdays are weather dependent; so please let us know you are coming. This will allow us to let you know if we have to cancel and we can ensure we have enough snacks for everyone.
