Join park rangers at Montezuma Well on Monday, January 15th from 10am - 3pm for Martin Luther King Day. To honor Dr. King, many organizations around the country are offering opportunities to serve others.
Rangers at Montezuma Well need help with:
* Weeding & tilling the traditional use & pollinator gardens
* Creating native seeds balls
* Cleaning out irrigation ditches
* Removing invasive plants (like pesky Johnson grass and Russian thistle)
* Trail maintenance (raking mulch, clearing debris, trimming branches)
Participants will also learn about native plants and their cultural uses.
We will provide extra water and tools, but please bring a water bottle, wear sturdy shoes, work clothes, a hat, and gloves if you have them. We will be offering free lunch!
