Midvale Heights

Volunteers are needed to help in the Odana Hills Prairie!

Canada Goldenrod and tall grasses are spreading in our pollinator garden at the Odana Hills golf course. To reduce the spread of these invasive plants and increase species diversity we will plant over 200 plugs of the hemiparasitic and native Wood Betony that were donated by the Midvale Heights Neighborhood Association.

Can you help with the planting this Friday evening (6/12) after 6pm? If you can bring a weeding knife or a narrow spade to dig a hole in the dry ground that would be greatly appreciated.

We also need volunteers to help with the watering of the plants. Depending on the rain situation we will have to water the plants once or twice a week during the first 3 or 4 weeks after planting. If you have a watering can or two we can get water from the nearby washing station of the mowers from the golf course.

Last but not least, if you have some time to pull Canada Goldenrod in some areas that would help with the spread as well.

If you are interested to help, please contact Marcel Wuethrich at 608-772-9427 or [email protected]
