Event Summary

Volunteers will hike a pleasant 1.5 mile roundtrip hike through the relict Valley View Prairie for this event. 

Volunteers should wear pants and boots/hiking shoes/rubber boots suitable for muddy wetland conditions, have a long sleeve shirt option, and should bring water, work gloves, and a pair of hand clippers if available. 

 *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.
