Description

Join Stewardship Partners and Oxbow Organic Farm and Conservation Center for an Earth Month environmental restoration project to improve salmon and wildlife habitat! Today we’ll maintain our Alder Grove buffer by removing invasive plants and installing some native shrubs and live stakes. Light refreshments (coffee, water and snacks), tools, gloves and an overview of the work we are doing, why it’s important and how to do it are provided. We’ll educate volunteers about Oxbow Farm and Stewardship Partners.
Dogs are not allowed on the farm.
