Join Great River Greening at the first public event at the Rice Area Sportsmen’s Club (RASC) Wildlife Management Area (WMA). The RASC WMA encompasses 580 acres of sandplain prairie, wetlands, oak woodlands, and rare oak savanna in Morrison County, near the town of Buckman. Volunteers will hike and plant thousands of butterfly weed seedlings in the prairie and savanna to re-introduce this important Monarch host-plant to the site.
We’re looking for a minimum commitment of two and a half hours.
All ages welcome, children must be supervised.
