Garry Oak Restoration work party

Posted March 20, 2013 at 5:41 am by

Got some time on Sunday to help out Doug, the Land Bank and the local Garry Oak population? Doug has this to say:

Calling all members of the Acorn Army!

I am hoping to do a last minute Garry Oak Restoration work party on Cady Mountain this Sunday, March 24th from Noon to 4:00 pm

Meet at the base of Cady Mountain to carpool up. Turn off of West Valley Road onto Cady Mountain Road and meet up at the intersection approximately 100 yards in.
Bring drinking water, gloves, and a handsaw if you have one. Watch the forecast for weather conditions and wear appropriate clothing layers/rain gear.

This will be the first of what will be more or less monthly work parties on Cady. We are trying to be a little more strategic in our approach and would like to engage volunteers to visit and work on a regular basis to keep up momentum on the project as well as experience the changes through the seasons. Additional dates are:

Sunday, April 28th
Sunday, May 26th
Thursday, June 27th
Saturday, July 20th
No work party in August
Sunday, Sept. 29th
Sunday, Oct 27th

If possible please let Doug know if you will be able to join them this Sunday.
