 We will do some winter cleaning, weed pulling and seedling identification.  There will probably be some seedlings available to bring home, especially of shining blue star. Bring gloves, pruners, small trowel &/or weed puller if you have them, but we will have some extra tools if you don't have them.  This can be an opportunity to learn to ID some spring native plants while working to clean up our adopted area.
