Please note: This is a limited-capacity event. The meeting location will be sent to registrants only. See below.

This spring, 90 Rosemount High School students planted 600 native species in the Rosemount Wildlife Preserve to enhance plant community diversity and increase wildlife habitat. Now we need your help to help these young ferns, flowers, grasses and sedges get through their first summer. Volunteers will help remove invasive species, water and care for the plants alongside Restoration Ecologist Karen Schik and other FMR staff.

More information is available on our Rosemount Wildlife Preserve project page.
