Fermilab Habitat Restoration Volunteers

Join us as we work to revive natural areas at Fermilab by clearing away non-native brush to encourage native woodland flowers and trees to grow. The diversity of plants will continue to expand with your help.

You can be a part of Fermilab Prairie Restoration by helping out the Habitat Restoration group beginning Saturday, March 17. We plan to remove invasive brush in the area between Wilson Hall and the Lederman Science Center. We meet at 9 a.m. in the Ledermann Science Center parking lot for water/coffee and donuts before we start work, and finish around Noon. Please dress for the weather; we will cancel only if there is a blizzard!

When: The 3rd Saturday of every month; hours are from 9:00 a.m. to noon.

Where: Meet at the Lederman Science Center, (see map) at 9:00 a.m. Doughnuts and coffee will be served. We will then work on different areas around the site that need our attention until noon.
