Join the Forest Preserve’s Natural Resources and Public Programs staff to recognize and honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day. The event will start in the Museum of the Grand Prairie education room for a presentation about the history of the landscape and its people.
Then we will move outside to a nearby natural area to collect native seeds that will be used in future restorations around the preserves. All tools provided.
Long pants and closed-toed shoes required. Long-sleeved shirts and refillable water bottles recommended.
All ages welcome, but children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult, and youth under 18 must have a guardian complete a waiver at the start of the program.
