Volunteer Event - Riverside - Riparian Plant Maintenance

There are currently no future events scheduled.
Join us along the Little Spokane River for riparian plant maintenance. Dogwood, Cottonwood, Aspen, and Willows were planted with cages placed around them to avoid critters munching on them. Now that the plants are well established and mature, it's time to remove the cages. There is also an invasive grass growing in this area. We can mow down the reed canary grass to avoid it going to seed and spreading.

Things to bring: 

-Discover Pass (we can issue you one for the event)

-Gloves

-Eye and Ear Protection (we have some to share)
