| 2nd Annual Garlic Mustard Pestival |
See you next year at the 2nd Annual Pestival!
Thank you to all of our volunteers that made this year's garlic mustard removal season a huge success! With over 170 hours of volunteer hours logged, we were able to remove 300 pounds of the invasive pest from the woodlot at the DeVrires Nature Conservancy!
Special thanks to: Eddie O'Flynn's restaurant of Owosso, Bergdorf's Winery of Haslett, the DeVries Nature Conservancy, the Michigan Chapter of The Nature Conservancy, and all of our volunteers and guests!
