Annual Fall Workbee - Oct 7, 2023

What will I be doing at the Workbee?

Assignments are given out at the start of the day at 9:00 AM. If you have an interest in something particular, let us know! Our goal is to utilize a volunteer’s individual strengths as much as possible. Here are some areas we plan to tackle:

  • Clear out invasive plants in designated light-workout stations along the Nature For All Trail
  • Remove invasive plants… many areas throughout the arboretum
  • Place woodchips on the Natural Playscape
  • Weeding around the buildings
  • Put the gardens to bed for the winter
  • Wash windows and indoor walls (hallway and restrooms)
  • Wash bird feeders

We welcome you to bring your own personal equipment such as rakes, garden shears, shovels, and other tools that would help assist the process.  Friendly reminder; to dress for the weather, bring your work gloves and a full bottle of water!  Most participants will be working outdoors.   THANK YOU for your consideration and support for Jackson’s Nature Place.

Feel free to contact the office at 517-782-3453 ext. 0 should you have questions or concerns.  Thank you!
