"For the Wild" Volunteer Day at Sugar Creek Bluff State Natural Area
Help protect the woodland wonders!
Many wild flowers and fungi are best seen in late May. Now is also the best time to pull garlic mustard before this invasive species goes to seed.
Join Land Manager, Levi Plath, for a day of garlic mustard removal. We'll be pulling and bagging garlic mustard on May 29th to make room for native lilies, snails, insects, and woodland birds to flourish! By helping to remove invasive species like garlic mustard, you can help the ladyslippers, snails, insects, mushrooms, and woodpeckers to thrive. We'll see many signs of late Spring while helping our friends in the woods. You might even find some morels for a mid day snack!
Carpooling is available from our office in La Crosse (with advance notification) – or you can meet us at the property. Please contact me if you'd like to carpool at 608-784-3606 ext.5.
Can't make it? Consider making a DONATION to the Conservancy's land management efforts! Whether it be money, tools, equipment, or FOOD for the volunteer day, YOU can help us to save and care for the land and wildlife!
Hope to see you out there!
~ Levi Plath, Land Manager
