Baby's Breath Workbees

Join ISN and the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy as we work to remove invasive baby's breath from Elberta Beach in Benzie County! Spreading easily over northwest Michigan's beaches and dunes, baby's breath crowds out native plants and degrades important habitat. We need your help to restore Elberta Beach back to a diverse, healthy landscape! With a deep taproot, removal is hard work but extremely rewarding. Shovels and other tools will be provided but please bring your own work gloves to protect your hands while using shovels. Long pants are recommended as there is some poison ivy on the beach.  We will meet at Elberta Beach parking lot.  Water and other refreshments will be provided. Feel free to take a dip in the big lake after!

Please  join us at one or more of the following dates!

• Tuesday, June 9 | 10am-12pm
• Tuesday, July 7 | 10am-12pm
• Tuesday, August 4 | 10am-12pm
