Restoration Workday: Sun, Mar 2, 1-4 PM

Dear Friends of the Broughton Nature Preserve,

We will have a restoration workday this Sunday from 1-4PM. Meet at the head of the Blue Trail in the GWB Complex #1 (directions below). We will continue clearing invasives from the creek banks and nearby hillsides along the Blue Trail. The before and after of this work is dramatic! Come check it out.

We will provide tools, snacks and good company. The weather is supposed to be spring-like.

Come join us making this trail even more spectacularly beautiful.

Mark 224.545.1604
