Run/Walk for Restoration:  Seedballs in the Shrub-Steppe

  • Richland Public Library - Conference room A + B 955 Northgate Drive Richland, WA, 99352 United States (map)

Join us at the Richland Public Library with our friends Runners of the Sage for a Run/Walk for Restoration:  Seedballs in the Shrub-Steppe.  Runners of the Sage will be leading an optional run/walk from the library followed by seedball making!  They'll run/walk down Swift to Howard Amon and onward towards Leslie Groves and back to the Library.  Runs generally last 30-45 minutes.  Set your own pace and run/walk at your leisure!  Rather just make seedballs?  Drop in seedball making hosted by Columbia Basin WNPS will be happening from 5:30-7 PM.  Seedballs will be spread on Rattlesnake Slope Preserve at a future date by Runners of the Sage.  All are welcome to this free event!

What to Bring:  We'll be getting our hands dirty so bring gardening gloves if you'd like.  If running/walking, wear appropriate shoes and clothing and bring water.
