Stewardship of public lands helps ensure their sustainability into the future. The above project entails spending a fun-filled day with like-minded community members giving back to YOUR public lands and supporting our lovable wildlife. This is a great opportunity to practice reciprocity and be in relationship with the living world that sustains us.
