Thanks to the community support of the Whetstone prairie & the leadership of the Rec & Parks Department the Whetstone Prairie is coming back strong!
Rosalie Hendon from Rec & Parks is organizing a follow-up seed collection at the Prairie since many species were not yet in seed during this year’s Pollinator Field Day (9/19).
Are you available this Friday, 10/9, from 1-3 pm? We will be collecting native prairie seed to use at other parks in Columbus.
If you have them, please bring:
- your own bucket (with a handle is easiest)
- hand pruners or garden scissors
- gardening gloves
- Personal water bottle
All volunteers are asked to wear face masks, socially distance, and stay home if sick!
