SUMMARY:January Full Moon Hike
DESCRIPTION:Our second full moon hike of the season will take place at Sylvan Solace Preserve on Friday January 6th at 7:00PM.\n\nNight hiking under a full moon is one of our favorite outdoor experiences!

SUMMARY:Trail Building @ Sylvan Solace Preserve
DESCRIPTION:We’re taking a brief break from our usual weekly Invasive Species Work Sessions to do some trailbuilding!\n\nJoin us this Thursday\, September 29th at 5:30PM for a trail building session at Sylvan Solace Preserve.\n\nWe’ve already started work on an approx. 0.21 mile trail to the east of the current trailhead. Once completed\, this trail will meander through the woods and link up with the current trail system near the butterfly garden and memorial grove.\n\nWhen Sylvan Solace was originally developed as a preserve\, a trail ran through this area. Over time this trail became overgrown and was abandoned. Although this new trail will not follow the exact route\, it will restore a path through that portion of the preserve for the first time in years.\n\nNo prior experience is necessary to participate. We will provide all necessary equipment and a training.\n\nDirections to the preserve: http://bit.ly/SylvanSolacePreserve\nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn

SUMMARY:Summer Wildflower Walk at Peterson Natural Area
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday August 20th\, 2022 from 1:00PM to 3:00PM for a hike at one of the CWC’s underappreciated preserves. Much of the 79-acre Peterson Natural Area is composed of open fields that are perfect for summer wildflowers. We’ll find different species of wildflowers in the wet meadow along the creek that bisects the preserve and in the dry sandy hillsides and swamp near the back of the preserve. Expect to see lots of butterflies and other pollinators!\n\nAs there are no trails throughout most of the preserve long pants are recommended.\n\nPeterson Natural Area is located near Big Rapids on the corner of 180th avenue and 11 Mile Road. The parking lot is along 180th Avenue.\nDirections to the preserve http://bit.ly/PetersonNaturalArea\n\nAfraid you’ll get lost? CWC Executive Director Mike LeValley will be at the CWC office (306 S. University Ave.) in Mt. Pleasant at 12:00 Noon – parking is at the rear of the building. You can follow him to Peterson Preserve from there.\nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn

SUMMARY:Invasive Species Work Session
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 5:30 PM every Thursday evening in July at Sylvan Solace Preserve for weekly invasive species work sessions. \nThe main focus of these sessions will be the removal of autumn olive (an invasive shrub) with a secondary focus on non-native honeysuckles and Japanese barberry. \nThese three introduced shrubs spread prolifically and crowd out native vegetation. Removal of these plants will hopefully lead to increased diversity of native species. In addition\, removal of the densest stands of autumn olive will open up the understory and allow for the future trail construction. \nWe provide all necessary equipment – all you have to do is bring plenty of water and show up ready to work. \nDirections to the preserve: http://bit.ly/SylvanSolacePreserve \nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn

SUMMARY:Invasive Species Work Session
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 5:30 PM every Thursday evening in July at Sylvan Solace Preserve for weekly invasive species work sessions. \nThe main focus of these sessions will be the removal of autumn olive (an invasive shrub) with a secondary focus on non-native honeysuckles and Japanese barberry. \nThese three introduced shrubs spread prolifically and crowd out native vegetation. Removal of these plants will hopefully lead to increased diversity of native species. In addition\, removal of the densest stands of autumn olive will open up the understory and allow for the future trail construction. \nWe provide all necessary equipment – all you have to do is bring plenty of water and show up ready to work. \nDirections to the preserve: http://bit.ly/SylvanSolacePreserve \nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn

SUMMARY:Stewardship Sunday - Garlic Mustard Pull
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Mill Pond Natural Area for our May Stewardship Sunday.\n\nThe focus of this event will be pulling invasive garlic mustard plants. Garlic mustard is alleleopathic\, meaning it releases chemicals into the soil that inhibit the growth of desired native plants. Each garlic mustard plant has the potential to produce thousands of seeds. Eventually\, if left uncontrolled a garlic mustard monoculture is left.\n\nNo need to bring anything . We’ll provide gloves and garbage bags.\n\nIf you want to take home some of the garlic mustard to cook (saute or make into pesto)\, bring your own containers.\n\nParking for this event is at Chipp-A-Waters Park (1403 W. High St.\, Mt. Pleasant). The preserve is located next to the park.\nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn
