bridging the gap events

event details

To Battle! Join in our Annual Honeysuckle Battle to help restore the hilly, stunning beauty of the Hidden Valley natural area. We will be cutting and stump treating the exotic invasive shrub honeysuckle that threatens this wild land. This work helps open the forest up for native plants and wildlife to thrive again. What a beautiful way to spend a fall day! Please note this site may have a long-ish walk (1/4 to 1/2 a mile on a trail) to get to the work area.

This is a great workday for groups!
