Expired

Description

We will be walking the prairie and trail to collect seeds from desirable grasses and wildflowers to be used to reseed bare areas of the park. Any extra seed will go toward prairie restoration efforts in other natural areas in Shawnee County. The majority of this park is virgin prairie which has never seen a plow. Plant species vary through the year but October should yield well. Volunteers will have beautiful views of native prairie, trails, plant ID and seed collection tips for the target plants and whatever else we can find blooming this time of year.
