Join the Pierce Conservation District for a volunteer work party at South Prairie Creek Preserve (the Preserve) as we continue to mulch trees and shrubs installed over the last 20 years! As fun as it is to install plants, we must also make a valiant effort to care for these plants and give them the best opportunity for survival. The hot summer temperatures contribute greatly to the plant mortality rates we see at the Preserve, and mulching is a great tool to create a thermal buffer and reduce the effects of drought. https://piercecd.org/calendar.aspx?EID=2589
