WHEN: The February Wild Ones meeting will actually be in March! It will be a field trip at Hartley Nature Center on Sunday, March 2, 1:00 pm, led by Bill Maier, Hartley's executive director. Bill will give us a short tour of the nature center building site and construction, followed by a visit to different forest types and experience of winter identification of trees, shrubs, and plants. We will meet in the Hartley parking lot off of Woodland Avenue at 1:00 pm. Bundle up!
Many of you probably received the South St Louis Soil & Water Conservation District tree and shrub order form in your newspaper last weekend. Is anyone interested in sharing orders? The trees/shrubs come in bundles of 25, and some of us would like to split bundles because we don't want that many. Please let me know if you're interested in splitting an order and which trees/shrubs you want. The natives that are available are:
| Green Ash (tree) Mountain Ash (tree) Paper Birch (tree) White Cedar (tree) Red Maple (tree) Silver Maple (tree) Sugar Maple (tree) Burr Oak (tree) Red Oak (tree) Tamarack (tree) |
Balsam Fir (evergreen) Red Pine (evergreen) White Pine (evergreen) White Spruce (evergreen) |
