National Public Lands Day - Native Seed Collection

Public Lands Day at Pipestone National Monument
 
PIPESTONE, Minn. — Calling all volunteers: Pipestone National Monument Needs Your Help on National Public Lands Day!
 
On Saturday, September 26th, volunteers can get out in the tallgrass prairie with park rangers from 9:00am – 12:00pm to help take care of this important cultural site!
 
Volunteers can choose between collecting native seeds that we will replant next year or removing invasive species that crowd out the native plants. No experience needed – we’ll provide the tools and training. Just bring sturdy shoes and dress in layers for the weather. We will have gloves available, but feel free to bring your own as well.
 
Volunteers will receive a complimentary lunch at 11:30am.
 
Please RSVP so we know how much food to order by either calling 507-825-5464 or emailing pipe_interpretation@nps.gov
