This Wednesday, November 8, we will be planting roughly 100 potted mature-ish saplings. Mostly native fruit-bearing trees and shrubs, but a couple of apple trees and spruce trees as well.

And we need some help! 

The planting site is actually the staging area created by a logging company that performed a forestry cut for us two years ago. This site is where we sourced the in-stream habitat wood that was place in the stretch of river within the Brown Bridge Quiet Area bottomlands.

Lending a hand on Wednesday would also be a good opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about other restoration projects taking place on the parkland.

I'll be on-site all day starting at 9:00.  The access drive to the planting site is marked with a grey "pin" on the map below. GPS-coordnaites are also on the map. In short, its located roughly 100 yards north of Hobbs Hwy, along Arbutus Lake Rd.

Thanks again for helping round up some helping hands! We need it!
