Weekend workdays!

Looking for something to do this weekend? Look no further- come to one of our fabulous events!

STEWARDSHIP WORKDAY
July 11, Saturday
9:00 am to 12:00 noon
Furstenberg Native Garden
Furstenberg Nature Area is a 37-acre park containing wetlands, woodlands, prairie, and oak savannah. If many people work together, we can maintain areas in our parks that are invasive-free and where the great diversity of our native plants can flourish. Join us! Please wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. Minors must be accompanied by a guardian, or contact NAP in advance to obtain a release form. A short nature walk will be held at the end of the workday, time permitting. Meet in the parking lot off Fuller Road at the native garden, across from Huron High School.
