National Public Lands Day
September 28 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
The Nature Center at Shaker Lakes is teaming up with the Sustainability Committee of the City of Shaker Heights and Doan Brook Watershed Partnership in sponsoring a native planting and invasive plant control event at our Grow not Mow Site #2 on the corner of South Park Boulevard and Lee Road in honor of National Public Lands Day. This parcel is located in the floodplain of the Doan Brook, and we are working to restore and enhance biodiversity in this area to make it a better habitat for pollinators, wildlife, and people. Our plantings will also help to absorb and filter stormwater runoff and prevent soil erosion.
Please bring gloves, and sturdy footwear for planting trees/pulling invasives and dress for the weather, rain or shine. Tools will be provided. Team leaders will show volunteers how to plant our native species of trees and shrubs as well as how to remove invasives. All ages welcome!
