Come on out for a joyful morning of ecological restoration at the beautiful Kishwaukee Fen Nature Preserve in the Village of Lakewood. Let’s celebrate the leadership and work of the volunteer stewardship community at this site, expand our numbers and impact, and plan for the future.
Whether you’re a seasoned conservationist or just starting your journey, everyone is welcome to participate in this hands-on event. We’ll kick off the next fall and winter of the care of Kish Fen through a “taste of restoration”:
* Learn plant ID while collecting rare wetland seeds.
* Prep, mix, and broadcast native seed.
* Treat and control malignant wetland species.
* Cut and burn invasive brush.
Many hands and many skills are needed. Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to make a difference and connect with nature.
Please come, enjoy, learn, be a part of something big. We can’t wait to see you there!
