Planting Project

 The 2021 Planting project was started on Friday August 27th.  We removed invasive species and prepared the site for our planting in October.  This years planting is at the intersection of East Lake Rd and East Springbrook Road.  We will be planting native trees and shrubs to stabilize the stream bank and absorb nutrients.

Thank You

 

Delighted  to have a dedicated group of volunteers help with the removal of  non-native plants from the 2021 planting site at Silver Lake.  The  attached photos (courtesy of Lee Loomis) show the  team member’s in action.
