Depending upon the site or week, we will be doing a variety of tasks such as removing sweet clover, burdock and wild parsnip, cutting brush, girdling saplings, or otherwise reducing the competition to our native prairie, woodland and wetland remnants.

Wear long pants, long sleeves, socks long enough to tuck your pant legs into (for tick avoidance), a hat and footwear that can get wet. Bring insect repellent, sunscreen and water.
