Greetings, Friends of the Prairie,
NOTE: Our monthly workday time is now between 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM.
This Saturday, August 16, we will be pulling/bagging Mullein, Queen Anne’s Lace, and White Sweetclover in the far southeast that we visited last year. Click here to view examples: https://www.chiwaukee.org/invasiveplants/#August
This is a meeting location where we have not met as a group since last year. Take 1st Court south from 116th Street just over a mile until you reach the end of 1st Court, approximately 700 feet past the marina entry/just north of the state line. Park in the area shown on the map in the discussion comments or click the link below. ***Please do not block the orange gate or the bicycle path.*** We will be working west/northwest of the parking area by accessing the walking path west of the orange gate. Depending on far along we get, we may continue working west of 1st Ct a bit to the north.
