Habitat Restoration - Wandering Rock SNA

Join Mississippi Valley Conservancy and our partners on November 6, 2025 for a day of habitat restoration and brush removal at the Conservancy’s newest nature preserve, Wandering Rock State Natural Area, located just south of the Village of Nelson in Buffalo County. From 9 a.m. until noon on Thursday, November 6, volunteers, Conservancy staff, and partners will work to improve wildlife habitat quality, access for public recreation, and prepare for upcoming prescribed burns.

As a reward for our efforts, we will get excellent views of the property’s scenic bluffs and cliffs, which rise high above the surrounding Mississippi River valley. All ages and skill levels are welcome – dress appropriately for the weather and bring sturdy footwear and clothing to protect from brush. Join us in caring for this remarkable new preserve!
