Byron Forest Preserve District issued the following announcement on March 11.
Discover a way to give back to the earth, find new friends and get some exercise! Join Nachusa Grasslands Nature Conservancy and the Byron Forest Preserve District for a FREE Volunteer Stewardship of Prairies and Oak Savannas Workshop event on Saturday, March 28 from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. This program allows you to explore hands-on land restoration and stewardship: seed harvesting, weed management, and brush control. You’ll also be given a brief history of the preserve, a substantial snack and go on a short walk to explore the prairies, oak savannas, or wetlands. Children 12 years of age and older are invited to attend. Kids under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
