Conservation Work Party

Join the Park District and IslandWood this winter in the ongoing restoration of Blakley Harbor Park! Thousands of volunteer hours have already been logged helping transform the site of the one-time largest mill in the world. Volunteers will help remove invasive species, spread mulch to discourage regrowth, and plant native species where invasives have been brought under control.

Well suited for children ages 6+ who are comfortable using small hand tools and walking off trail on uneven surfaces.
