Workbee Event!

The J. Steckle Heritage Homestead in Kitchener (811 Bleams Rd) is looking for volunteers for a work-bee this Sunday at 12:30, preparing a prairie & riparian corridor restoration site for winter. Refreshments will be provided (mmm, cider)! This is a great opportunity to come on out, learn a bit about ecological restoration, mulch some trees, and enjoy the crisp Fall air. Take a break from all the school and come join us in the great outdoors and help us to recreate one of Ontario's most endangered ecosystems!

Also, the University of Waterloo Field Naturalists Club is breaking in our "field trip" shoes, so if anyone's interested in learning about tree identification, I'll be attempting to lead a hike in the (expansive!) Huron Natural Area site directlyacross from the JSHH following the work-bee, probablystarting around 3. (Please RSVP if you'd like toattend).

If anyone is interested in attending (either event) but needs directions, please e-mail me at (amcantell(at) yahoo.ca) and I'll forward them on ASAP. I'll also be leaving from the 12 busstop on University Ave.just out front of South Campus Hall (That's on University Ave., not the stop on Ring Road!) at 11 am Sunday, if anyone wants to join me/be spared attempting to follow my directions. ;)

Amber Cantell, UW Field Naturalists
