Discovery Park - Lizard Haven03/01/2024
Activities
With the guidance of the UW Restoration Ecology Network, we'll be restoring one of the most scenic restoration sites in the city. We are calling the site Lizard Haven due to the many northern alligator lizards seen in the area. Our primary task will be spreading wood chips and removing blackberry roots in preparation for planting new native plants. We'll have pitchforks, rakes, hand tillers, wheelbarrows and heavy duty shovels to accomplish our tasks.
As an added perk, we will get a short lesson on restoration ecology techniques or philosophy from current students of the curriculum. AND AN EVEN BETTER PERK, REFRESHMENTS (LA CROIXS AND STARBUCKS FRAPUCCINOS) WILL BE PROVIDED BY METROPOLITAN MARKET!
