Rio Vista Restoration Planting Workshop - October 5

Join us Saturday, October 5th from 8am-11am to help us increase the shade and diversity of native, Sonoran Desert plants at Rio Vista Natural Resource Park. Volunteers will learn about native plants, planting techniques paired with rain basins, and help us with restoration of the park.

The event will be led by Strategic Habitat Enhancements, a local native plant restoration business, with assistance from Watershed Management Group, a local environmental non-profit.  We will meet at the main parking area of the park entrance at the north end of Tucson Blvd just north of Prince Rd. Please wear closed-toed shoes, long pants, sun protection, bring a refillable water bottle, and be prepared to get your hands dirty. Gloves and tools will be provided.

This event is hosted in partnership by City of Tucson Parks and Recreation, Strategic Habitat Enhancements, and Watershed Management Group.
