Help remove cedar trees from our prairies and make a holiday wreaths with the branches!
About this Event

Bring home a native wreath from right here in Dubuque County. While cedars are native to this area, they are taking over our remnant prairies and need to be taken out. We will be cutting them done with hand saws and loppers provided by County Conservation Staff. We will also be providing wire, ribbon, and tools for wreath making. Please dress for the weather. We will also be learning all about prairie restoration techniques and how you can help preserve these areas.

Forest School will meet every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month during the school year (No class Nov. 25 or Dec. 23). These programs are provided for any school age child and will be experiential and hands-on utilizing the great outdoors.

Forest School is free, but please register every child in attendance to ensure proper space and needed materials.

Classes require a minimum number of participants in order to run.


*This is the re-scheduled day of the event that was originally scheduled for Friday, December 9th.
