Words from the Woods ~ The next Wood’s Work Day will be Saturday, March 18 at 10 AM. Bring your gloves and hand tools as we will be cutting down last year’s plants and weeding the beds. We wait until the days are warmer so the native insects have a chance to hatch that may be in the flowers and shrubs. Some of these insects will be the protein source for the bird babies in our Woods. Let Mary and Mindy know if you’re coming, or just show up. We can order pizza to share after working together. Stay for the composting workshop at 1 PM, as well!
