Get outside and join us and our friends from Tapteal Greenway for an excursion to collect sagebrush seeds! We'll learn some of the basics of native seed collection including collecting etiquette and when and how to tell if seeds are ripe. The seeds we collect will be used in CBWNPS chapter events + local restoration projects. All are welcome to this free event! Please note that folks under the age of 18 must bring along a parent or legal guardian in order to join in on the fun!

MEETING PLACE:
Parking lot of Amon Creek Elementary (18 Center Parkway, Richland, WA)
From there, we'll walk .2 mi to the collection site.

Things to note: A majority of the collection site will be along uneven terrain with sections to collect along a paved road. Closed toe shoes, long pants and gloves are recommended. We will be outdoors for the duration of this event so dress for the weather!

What to Bring: A large paper bag or 5 gallon bucket would be helpful if you have it.
