Habitat Heroes Day

Saturday, April 18th, 10:30am - 12:00pm

Join us for a hands-on day of stewardship at Riverbend as we care for the habitats that support wildlife across the preserve. Volunteers will help remove invasive vines such as five-leaf akebia and English ivy—plants that can overwhelm native ecosystems if left unmanaged.

 

After clearing space for native plants to thrive, participants will help plant a selection of surprise spring perennials propagated by Riverbend’s Habitat Manager, Ayla. These locally grown plants will help strengthen habitat for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife.

 

Whether you’re new to stewardship or a seasoned volunteer, Habitat Heroes Day is a meaningful way to give back to the land while learning about the importance of native plants and healthy ecosystems.

 

Come ready to get your hands dirty and help make a difference!
