Bunchberry Meadows is filled with rolling meadows and patches of birch, Jack pine, and mixedwood forest. This 640-acre area supports many birds and other wildlife, and we have enhanced habitat for birds by installing many nest boxes for Tree Swallows, Mountain Bluebirds, and House Wrens. We now need to clean out old nesting material from the bird boxes to make room for next years occupants, and we need your help! With just under 100 boxes to clean, we can use as many helping hands as we can get.
We will meet at Bunchberry Meadows at 9:30 am and finish by 2 pm. Wear appropriate footwear and long pants, and bring a lunch, water, hat, and a camera or binoculars if you'd like. If you have your own gloves to bring we recommend that you do so, but otherwise tools and gloves will be provided. Additional information will be sent to you several days in advance of the event.
While we resume our volunteer stewardship events, we are committed to implementing actions to comply with public health measures and workplace guidance to reduce risk of COVID-19 among staff, volunteers, and the general public. We will also be implementing updated EALT health and safety policies and procedures to support a safe work and volunteer environment. Please read our guidelines for volunteering during COVID-19 here. We thank you for your understanding and support as we roll out these safety measures.
Stewardship events are weather-dependent and subject to cancellation.
