Event Description: Join ANPE as we step into stewardship at Lester Park. The Lester forest is an early successional, mesic forest that would naturally experience occasional, but infrequent fire. Due to deer herbivory, the later successional species like white pine, cedar, and yellow birch have not been able to naturally regenerate. ANPE plans to plant 10-20 seedlings within the forest adjacent to the ski trails for easy access in future years to visit them and watch them grow!
Event Leader: This event will be led by the ANPE board.
Event cost: Your $20 (per household) annual Arrowhead Native Plant Explorers membership includes access to all events and field trips ($10 for students). For nonmembers, your first meeting or event is free and subsequent events are $10 per event.
Skill Level: Beginner. No plant knowledge or prior planting experience necessary.
Accessibility: uneven terrain on ski trails, and some off trail walking for those planting. Dress for brush and plan for insects!
