ORGANIZATION: Friends of the Mississippi River

image_20250329125311

Join us for a special evening during Pride month to come together and revitalize the planting demonstration boxes in the Nicollet Island prairie. With the guidance of Friends of the Mississippi River staff, volunteers will dig in to tend grasses and wildflowers which provide examples of native prairie plantings to park users. These plants provide ideas of what might create good habitat in their own neighborhoods.

This event is for those who self-identify as LGBTQIA2S+ or as allies of the queer community! No experience is needed. However, registration is required and capacity is limited. All tools, gloves and training will be provided.
