Description

Join us in the beautiful prairie at Katharine Ordway Natural History Study Area (Ordway Field Station) for an afternoon of service and snowshoeing (or hiking) fun! In partnership with Macalester College, we need help restoring the rich prairie at the site by removing encroaching woody plants.

The afternoon will include an optional naturalist-led hike by Macalester College staff to explore the prairie, different woodland habitats, and the river! This event would be great for adults and kids over 12 years old. No experience is needed.

Parking is VERY limited at the site, so please carpool!
