Event overview

We will be partnering with the National Park Service at the Florissant Fossil Beds Natural Monument to assist with non-native plant eradication and maintenance. This will involve pulling weeds and planting new wildflowers and new plants in the area. This is a kid-friendly event as well, so bring the little ones! We will be doing an outdoor craft activity to keep them entertained and have them partake in the fun.
