Stewardship Sunday - Native Planting Event for Ages 8+ at Blowing Rocks Preserve

Notes regarding time

Check-in runs from 9:45 AM - 10:00 AM

Description

Join us at Blowing Rocks Preserve for a FREE Stewardship Sunday volunteer opportunity planting native plants at the preserve! *Great way to earn volunteer hours for school, scholarships, or other community service requirements!* 

Native plants are essential to conserving coastal ecosystems, and providing food and habitat for native animals. That's why at this event, we'll be outplanting native plants grown in our native plant nursery on-site! 

Participants should plan to gather on the porch outside the Hawley Education Center between 9:45 and 10:00 AM for volunteer check-in before the activity begins. No previous experience is required, all are welcome! 

Prior registration for this event is appreciated but not required, and walk-ins are welcome if space allows. All necessary tools and supplies will be provided by The Nature Conservancy. All youths under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Recommended for ages 8 and up. 

Be sure to come prepared for the Florida heat and bugs by bringing a refillable water bottle, sun protection, and bug spray if necessary. This activity will involve walking on uneven, sandy terrain, so please wear appropriate closed-toe footwear. Questions or concerns? Contact us at VisitBRP@TNC.org or (561)-744-6668.

We always recommend confirming details before attending.
