Event Description:
We'll visit the Rio Salado habitat restoration area in Phoenix to learn about native plants and efforts to restore the area. We'll also learn about wildfires and invasive plant species.
Cafe con pan (mexican coffee and bread) will be provided. Participants will also receive a packet of free native flower seeds!
Please RSVP to let us know you're coming: https://act.
Just a heads up! There have been rattlesnake sightings in the area. We will do a safety briefing and stay alert throughout the walk.
Things to bring: Water bottle, hat, sunscreen, and thick sole boots. We recommend avoiding tennis shoes and sandals due to cactus needles in the replanting area, especially at the nursery. Don't worry if you don't have the right footwear—just let us know, and we'll make sure you're all set for your visit.
