We are starting out the month of February by heading into the Rillito near Curtis Park to keep trash out of our creeks and remove the invasive species Arundo donax.
We will bring everything you need to participate in this effort to pick up trash and remove the invasive species, but you are welcome to bring your own supplies as well! We recommend bringing your favorite set of gloves, a water bottle, and loppers if you have them.
Head out there with us this Saturday, February 8th @ 2:30pm - 4:30pm (register here).
Then again on Saturday, Febaury 15th @ 2:30pm - 4:30pm (register here)!
You'll get the chance to explore the confluence of Tanque Verde and Sabino Creeks with Lisa Shipek, WMG's Executive Director on Saturday, February 22nd @ 3pm - 5pm (register here)
You'll walk upstream along Sabino Creek, weaving through the sandy floodplain, shallow waters, and cottonwood forest. Learn more about what this area would have looked like historically and what you can do to help restore groundwater levels and regular flows.
