Spring volunteers will get their hands dirty at new and old sites

February 2015This season, hundreds of volunteers will join us to plant trees on Arbor Day and clear buckthorn from a favorite park in the east metro, and they'll to continue to create a new nature sanctuary in a heavily urbanized Saint Paul neighborhood. New to our project list this year is an effort to help restore oak woodlands at Carver Park Reserve in the west metro a Three Rivers District parkland, popular as a recreation area and home to a wide variety of wildlife.

An excellent year-round birding location

Wetland rich for migration and nesting

Butterfly and hummingbird gardens

A place to get lost in.... on purpose
