Join the forest preserves’ Natural Resources staff to recognize and honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

Then we will move across the road to Buffalo Trace to collect native seed that will be used in future restorations around the preserves. All tools provided. Long pants and closed-toe shoes required. All ages welcome but little ones must be accompanied by an adult. Email ewilliams@ccfpd.org with any questions.
