SUMMARY:Volunteer Invasive Iris Clean-Up Day
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to invite you to one of the most important parts of the Honoring Mother Earth Celebration\, a community event hosted by the Chicken Ranch Rancheria of Me-Wuk Indians and the Tuolumne Band of Me-Wuk Indians: the volunteer day! This is where we can express our gratitude for the natural world by getting to work to remove invasive yellow iris in Woods Creek Rotary Park for the fourth year in a row. \nThe volunteer clean-up day will be Friday April 24 from 3-6pm at Woods Creek Rotary Park (87 N Forest Rd\, Sonora\, California). In collaboration with the Yosemite Rivers Alliance and Love Tuolumne we will provide volunteers with gloves\, tools\, and a free meal catered by Black Bomb Entertainment\, a local cafe in Sonora. Please fill out liability forms ahead of time here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd0pPVUI5tsid1TnKFArg_H2GvPHojfv2tnt0Qzxi9PFC1REQ/viewform \nWe highly recommend you wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty\, long sleeve shirts and pants\, closed toe shoes\, a hat\, and sunglasses. Also make sure to bring a reusable water bottle\, sunscreen\, and any medications\, especially epi-pens\, you may need in case of emergency. We will have water for you to fill up your bottles\, snacks\, and a first aid kit on site. \nYellow Iris is known to cause skin irritation\, a great reason to remove it from our local waterways! Removal will also make room for native plants to thrive again. Native plants keep waterways healthy by providing habitat that supports biodiversity by providing habitat\, improving water quality\, and stabilizing soils with deep roots among many other benefits.
