Let's Give Native Plants A Chance!
Invasive shrubs and vines are present everywhere and they pose a threat to the ecosystem of our beautiful wooded property. There are methods to remove or slow down their growth and give beneficial native plants a chance to thrive.
Come join us - bring work gloves, boots and old clothes (in layers) for invasive brush clearing in the woods and along the Broadway drive. If you have rakes, shovels or pruners, please bring them, but no problem if you don't. We'll provide tools, instruction and snacks! Come for as little or as long as your schedule allows.
There's something to do for all levels of skill and gardening experience. Light snow cover and cold temps are not a problem for this kind of work!
We'll also have packets of native seeds from our local seed library that can be planted in old milk or water jugs to get the seedlings started in advance of the planting season. This is a quick, fun project and is a great way to get started with Michigan native plants at no cost.
Come learn about the seed library!
