West Branch Dupage water willo planting delayed to7/22/12 8am


Recommended Posts

The Dupage Forest Preserve is looking for help with planting this Sunday 7/22/12 at Mack road dog park on the east side of the West Branch Dupe. Drift is helping but the FPD could use more help. Anyone who missed the Fox planting here is a second chance. You will be working in the new restored habitat sections with the pros who planned it & what better chance to see the improvements while helping frost the cake. I will be there at 8, please let me know if you are coming.
