2nd Annual Garlic Mustard Pestival
It's great to have all the extra hands helping to remove invasive species from our natural habitats.  In the last two seasons, the FOSR and DeVries Nature Conservancy have removed 1900 pounds of garlic mustard!  Now help us celebrate another successful work season with the Garlic Mustard Pestival! 

The Pestival will be held at the Wrought Iron Grill at 6:30 on Thursday, May 14 and will include a fabulous menu created from garlic mustard.  All proceeds support the efforts of the DeVries Nature Conservancy and the FOSR Tickets are $45/person - seats are limited so reserve today by contacting Heidi Frei at 989.723.9062 or Tracy McMullen at 989.723.3365.
