Friends of Cherokee Marsh Volunteer Work Day
Meadow Ridge Park 4002 Meadow Valley Drive, Madison, Wisconsin 53704
media release: Help make room for wildflowers by pulling garlic mustard at Cherokee Marsh. No experience needed. Garlic mustard pulling is a great way to get out and spend time in the woods while also helping the native wildflowers, grasses, and sedges thrive.
Join us for any or all of these dates:
May 13, 2-5 pm (afternoon event!), Cherokee Marsh Conservation Park - Mendota Unit. Meet at 24 Knutson Dr. Park on street.
Knutson Drive may be closed for reconstruction from HWY 113 / Northport Dr to Green Ave. To access the meeting location, from HWY 113, take Troy Drive west. At the curve, Troy becomes Green Ave. Turn left from Green onto Knutson.
May 15, 9 am - 12 noon and May 19, 9 am - 12 noon
Location to be determined
If you can attend on May 13, it's helpful if you respond to me at janaxelson@gmail.com.
If you have an interest in helping out on May 15 or 19 (you don't need to commit to anything), let me know at janaxelson@gmail.com. I'll respond with the location when we know it.
