Conservation Work Party

Help care for our woods, meadows, beaches and open space. This month we’ll continue to manage ivy in the Grand Forest West.  It’s important to keep ivy off the forest’s trees and we’ll pull ivy back to the ground.

What to bring: We suggest volunteers wear sturdy, close-toed shoes, long pants, and work gloves. Please also bring your own water bottle if you’d like one. The Park District will provide any (sanitized) tools volunteers will need, but feel free to bring your favorite.
