Join us for our 10th annual OAKtober Planting Party! During this special event, you'll work with District staff and volunteers to reforest the heart of Coral Woods, as part of the District's long-term efforts to restore the "Big Woods" that once covered a third of our county in oak woodlands.Plan to hike a short distance off trail to the planting site, where you will learn why this work is important and how to plant tree seedlings. Dress for getting grubby and bring work gloves if you have them. This is a great opportunity to have some fun with the whole family and log service hours for Scouts and students.
The site of this restoration project is accessible to all, including parking, trailhead and restrooms. An accessible planting area will also be available.
This is a free, all-ages, drop-in program. Registration is not required.
Can't make it but would like to donate a tree to the BIG WOODS? Visit www.mchenryconservation.org/bigwoods
