Latino Heritage Stewardship Day

The fifth annual Latino Heritage Stewardship Day, a joint initiative by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago, the Forest Preserves of Cook County and Latino Outdoors, will take place on Saturday, October 18, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Possum Hollow Woods in La Grange Park.

Volunteers will come together to participate in a series of activities that include the identification and mitigation of invasive species threatening the local ecosystem. Participants will gain valuable insight into sustainable gardening practices aimed at creating a healthier environment. They will also be removing invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle for a prescribed burn.

Don't miss this opportunity to connect, learn, and celebrate together out in nature. Space is limited so please RSVP!
