Are you passionate about herons and love to dig out invasives or plant trees? That same morning on Saturday March 9 at 9:00am, you can participate in one of?their Second Saturday Work Parties to help restore the heron habitat. No experience necessary. Just a love of herons, nature and meeting new people. Bring your work gloves and dress for the weather. They’ll be at two sites, KRO (36th Ave W and W Ohman Place) and KRS (end of W. Brygger Drive) doing maintenance. For directions and more info, click here.
