Stewardship Event: Adopt-a-Highway cleanup / Visit to Humble Roots Nursery, Mosier
Visit our long running stewardship site of five acres of native plants established in 1989, the “Russ Jolley Wayside” at MP 68 on I-84 Westbound near Mosier as it wakes up from winter. We’ll look for the first emerging leaves of Lomatiums and Penstemons and collect the litter blown in from the freeway. We plan to have a lunch break and visit Humble Roots Nursery up in Mosier Valley after the event to see the diverse collection of “eastside” and adaptable native plants grown by our Chapter members and authors of the 2023 book The PNW Native Plant Primer. Email Willow Elliott at el*************@gm***.com to sign up as a volunteer and to arrange carpooling.
