For this final Nature Reserve Stewardship meeting of the year, we’ll be clearing out the trash. There’s not a lot, and almost no small items. But there are a few large ones that will take a number of helping hands! Don’t worry, we won’t be hauling out the old water pump pictured above. That artifact will remain where it is. At least for now. Though, there are a few oil drums (used for floats on an old swimming raft) and a few other similarly-sized items that need to be removed. We’ll use a manual winch to assist us.

Since StarCliff is a Monarch Waystation,** in place of the oil drums, we’ll scatter some seeds of native herbacious plants that monarch caterpillars and butterflies require.

*As StarCliff is a nature reserve and there is a private residence at the opening to the property, the street address is not publicized.
