January 2012
It’s a new year and a new beginning! Throughout the Sweet Springs Nature Preserve, signs of new life are stirring everywhere. The slender blades of wild hyacinth have pierced the soil in their journey skyward. The cotyledons of sky lupine have unfolded above a blanket of small, celadon green poppies. The tendrils of wild cucumber are starting to unfurl, searching for a branch to climb on. Join us in a new chapter of restoration at the preserve. Help us remove invasive veldt grass on the new eastern addition so we can encourage the native shrubs and wildflowers that are there, and prepare the area for planting more natives later in the year. Join us at the corner of 4th Street & Ramona Ave at 9:00 on Saturday, January 14th. We’ll have plenty of tools, tips and munchies for everyone. We’ll also be giving away free tees, hats, & totes to winners of our flora & fauna quiz. For more info, contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
