Environment

Habitat Restoration & Trail Maintenance at Cedar Ridge Preserve from 9 am - 11 am, rain or shine. Volunteers remove non-native plants, restore trails, and work in the butterfly garden. Repairing trails reduces erosion trouble spots and removing non-native plants clears crowded trail edges. We'll provide snacks, water, pruning shears, shovels, and work gloves. All you need to bring is sun screen and bug repellent. Questions? Contact info_CRP@yahoo.com

Kids ages 5-12 will learn how to help the family live green with hands-on projects about recycling, conserving energy and practicing sustainability. $65.
