Saturday Restoration Workdays at Donald County Park

Last winter, we began restoring an oak savanna—one of the rarest ecosystems in the world. This fall and winter, we will continue that work, hand-cutting invasive sumac and honeysuckle so that native species can emerge and thrive next spring. New tools will enable us to spot-treat the stumps without bending over or getting too up-close and personal with herbicide. When: Saturdays, November 26th, December 3rd and 10th, from 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm, with a cookie break midway.

Where: Meet in the parking lot on Sutter Drive.

What to wear: Sturdy shoes and clothes that are suitable for working outside and can withstand possible encounters with thorny brambles.

What to know/bring: No experience is necessary! We will have tools, but feel free to bring a lopper if you have one. Also bring water. We'll provide the cookies.
