Prairie Seed Harvest

Event Summary

Harvesting prairie seeds is an easy way for people of all ages and physical abilities to take part in conservation volunteerism. During each program, volunteers will learn how to identify the one species of focus for the day before spreading out into the prairie (or around the prairie edge if desired) to harvest. Volunteers can enjoy mindful quiet time while harvesting, or use this as a great way to catch up with friends in a safe outdoor setting. Volunteers should wear pants and boots/hiking shoes, have a long sleeve shirt option, and should bring water, work gloves, and a pair of hand clippers if available.
