SUMMARY:Volunteer for the River in Eagle
DESCRIPTION:BREN is partnering with City of Eagle Parks and Recreation to improve habitat around two ponds on the site of the future Woods Park. Volunteers worked throughout 2019 to plant willows and other native plants. The healthy riparian habitat supports birds and wildlife and shades the water to improve water quality. Now it’s time to clear weeds away from the plants\, check on survival and water where it’s needed. \nFamilies and children are welcome to participate. \nParticipants will be required to wear a mask and keep a safe distance from people outside their family. All tools will be provided. Please bring gloves and water\, wear long pants\, long sleeves and closed-toe shoes. There is no restroom at the site. There is a .25 mile level walk to the project site from the parking lot. \nThanks to our sponsor GEICO of Treasure Valley and our partners – Land Trust of the Treasure Valley and City of Eagle Parks and Recreation. \nRegistration is required and space is limited.
