SUMMARY:Sagebrush Planting in the Wenatchee Foothills
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wed\, 11/10/2021\n\n\nTime: 12 PM – 3 PM\n\n\nLocation:\nEnd of Maiden Lane\, access to Balsamroot Trail south TH\n\n\n\n\nChelan-Douglas Land Trust invites you to plant over 300 native big sagebrush seedlings in the Wenatchee Foothills\, within the footprint of both the 2012 and 2015 wildfires. The seeds were collected nearby in 2020 by CDLT volunteers.  Derby Canyon Natives in Peshastin grew the seedlings.  The planting area is important mule deer wintering habitat. Our efforts to return woody sagebrush to the habitat will meet mule deer habitat by providing food and cover. The work will be moderately strenuous and will involve walking (carrying plants & tools) about 1/2-mile to access the off-trail hillside site.  To plant\, we’ll be on a slope and will be bending and crouching. CDLT volunteers will be joined a group of high-school aged youth. \nEveryone’s safety is our top priority at these events. Please read CDLT’s COVID Safety Protocol and do not attend the event if you are feeling unwell. Remember to bring a face mask to wear when you’re around other people\, work gloves\, hand sanitizer\, water\, snacks\, layers of clothing appropriate for the task & weather on site\, close-toed shoes. The Land Trust will bring long-tongued “tile spade” shovels for volunteers to use. \nPlease RSVP with the form so we can get an accurate headcount and provide you with details for the work party as the date approaches. \n*All work parties are weather and conditions dependent. Canceled work parties will be rescheduled if possible. \nQuestions? Please email Susan Ballinger\, Conservation Fellow at susan@cdlandtrust.org

SUMMARY:National Park Free Admission Day for Veterans Day
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission Day to the National Parks in honor of Veterans Day \nMany national parks have direct connections to the American military—there are dozens of battlefields\, military parks\, and historic sites that commemorate and honor the service of American veterans. In addition\, every national park is part of our collective identity that defines who we are and where we came from as a nation. They are tactile reminders of the values\, the ideals\, and the freedoms that our veterans protect. \nThe majestic landscapes\, natural wonders\, and patriotic icons that we cherish as a society have also inspired military members through the years. The Grand Canyon\, Mount Rushmore\, the USS Arizona Memorial\, and the Statue of Liberty are just a few of the national parks that have served as reminders of home to those stationed abroad. On Veterans Day\, or any day\, honor those who have served and sacrificed for our country with a visit to a national park. \nThe National Park Service invites all visitors to remember our veterans by visiting any National Park Service site for free on Veterans Day (November 11). Find tips to recreate responsibly while you visit!

SUMMARY:Sagebrush Seed Collection near Spiva Butte
DESCRIPTION:Date: Sat\, 11/13/2021 \nTime: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm \nLocation: Spiva Butte \nChelan-Douglas Land Trust and Conservation Northwest invite you to join a Saturday\, Nov. 13\, 2021\, work party to help collect big sagebrush seeds.  We welcome families and volunteers of all ages and abilities\, who will enjoy spending a day in the sagebrush grasslands of rural NE Douglas County where it is usually windy and cold.  The location is 1-1/2 hour drive from Wenatchee\, 2-1/2 hours from Spokane\, and 1-1/2 hour drive from Winthrop. We will meet at 10am (detailed location directions will be provided) and conclude at 2pm. \nOur goal is to collect seedheads to use to replant big sagebrush on CDLT’s Spiva Butte Nature Preserve where the 2020 Pearl Hill Wildfire killed all sagebrush.  Greater Sagegrouse\, Sage Thrashers\, and many other native wildlife depend upon sagebrush for food and habitat. Our goal is to quickly re-seed this shrub on the 1300-acre preserve.  Part of the seeds will be used in nurseries to grow seedlings. Most will be used in late fall\, distributed by a field crew who will fling seedheads within the preserve to simulate natural wind-blown dispersal.  CDLT conducted a pilot flinging project in 2020 and the positive results show the effectiveness of this novel method. \nParking is along a well-maintained county gravel road. Volunteers will walk cross country on uneven flat ground for up to 1-mile.  Volunteers will be within sight of parked vehicles\, so extra clothes\, food\, and water can be left in vehicles for easy access.   Volunteers will use hand clippers or scissors to cut seedheads and place them into a lightweight bag\, tucked into a belt. \nEveryone’s safety is our top priority at these events. Please read CDLT’s COVID Safety Protocol and do not attend the event if you are feeling unwell. Remember to bring a face mask to wear when you’re around other people\, work gloves\, hand sanitizer\, water\, snacks\, layers of clothing appropriate for the task & weather on site\, close-toed shoes.  We’ll supply some sweet treats and raffle off 4 gas cards. \nPlease RSVP by filling out the form so we can provide you with details for the work party as the date approaches. \n*All work parties are weather and conditions dependent. Canceled work parties will be rescheduled if possible. \nIf you have questions\, please contact Susan Ballinger (susan@cdlandtrust.org) or Keith Watson (keith@conservationnw.org).
