Native Seed Spreading and Invasive Vegetation Removal

Join MUCC’s On the Ground (OTG) program in partnership with Kent Conservation District for an oak savanna habitat restoration day at Cannonsburg State Game Area!

Volunteers are needed on Saturday, October 7 from 9am to noon. 

We will be spreading native grass and forb seeds as well as removing invasive vegetation in an effort to increase biodiversity and to prevent the establishment of non-native invasive vegetation. The work site is about 0.5 miles from the designated parking area.

Meeting location: Volunteers will meet at the Dursum Road parking area in Ada.

Attendees are encouraged to bring reusable water bottles, although bottled water and snacks will be provided throughout the day. Please wear good hiking shoes and tear-resistant clothes. This project will take place rain or shine, unless there is severe weather so please dress accordingly.
