Vesper Volunteering for Earth Day: Willow Planting

The Dead Indian Creek, headwaters to the Rogue River, is undergoing a revolution. Vesper Meadow Education Program is launching a long path of stewardship and re-wilding at a beautiful upland meadow near Howard Prairie Reservoir. Please accept this invitation to participate in a community act of restoration: help plant the naked banks of the creek and help prepare native plants for planting. All are welcome to join in this celebration of Earth Day with Vesper Meadow and Medford REI, and give back to the watershed that we rely on. We'll follow up our work with snacks and celebration. Come join friends in some muddy fun!
