Invasive Plant Monitoring at Sand Prairie Wildlife Management Area

Expired

Description

Join Great River Greening for a special mid-summer event! We will be working with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Fish and Wildlife team in St. Cloud. Volunteers will learn how to use GPS to mark the locations of invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle for later removal. This monitoring will help inform our future restoration work at this stunning location.

Sign up for a morning or afternoon shift on August 3 here

This is a family-friendly event. Limited to 5 volunteers due to the number of available GPS devices. Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds are encouraged to attend. No previous knowledge or experience is necessary, we will provide the tools and training required.

Once you have registered via GivePulse, organizers from Great River Greening will approve your registration and you will receive confirmation. You will continue to receive event reminders as the event nears. If you have further questions, please contact Great River Greening at volunteer@greatrivergreening.org. If the event has reached capacity, please add your name to the waitlist and you will be automatically registered if space becomes available.
