Seed collecting work day Sunday Oct. 12

Every October we have a seed collecting work day around the second Sunday in October. Seed collecting takes place not only at Pleasant Valley Conservancy but at nearby Black Earth Rettenmund Prairie. These are both State Natural Areas. We start at Pleasant Valley at 10 AM, break for lunch at noon (provided by us; see photo above), and then move on to Black Earth Rettenmund for the afternoon. Participants can work at either site or at both (lunch either way!).

This year the date is Oct. 12, 2008.

We have lots of seeds to collect and the prairies are in great shape. We would be delighted to have you!
