) Residents of Clay and O'Brien Counties and surrounding communities are invited to discover how Iowa’s native plants can make our environment more attractive and functional for themselves, others, and their community through a program called Stewards of the Beautiful Land.
Trees Forever is offering Stewards of the Beautiful Land as an educational class for participants to learn how to beautify and enhance parks, community entryways, roadsides, schools, backyards or farms by planting native grasses, trees, and wildflowers. There will be a strong emphasis on the use of native plants to help filter stormwater. In addition to learning about prairie wildflowers, native grasses, and trees and their use, people in the class will be able to participate in a planting project.
Trees Forever professionals and invited guest speakers will teach you about:
• Plant identification
• Basic design principles
• What, where, and how to plant
• Establishment practices
• Site management and management techniques
• Safety considerations
• Potential funding sources
The four sessions of the Stewards of the Beautiful Land class are scheduled for:
• Tuesday, June 18, 6-9 p.m. at the Spencer Aquatic Center
• Tuesday, July 16, 6-9 p.m. at the Prairie Heritage Center in Peterson, IA
• Tuesday, August 13, 6-9 p.m. location to be determined
• Tuesday, September 17, 6-9 p.m. at the Prairie Heritage Center in Peterson, IA
No prior experience or knowledge of prairies and trees is necessary, only a commitment to actively participate. Communities are encouraged to send more than one volunteer to the workshops so that participants can share their knowledge and experience with others. Although there is no registration fee, space is limited.
This course is possible through generous support by the Living Roadway Trust Fund of the Iowa Department of Transportation, the O'Brien County Conservation Board, the Clay County Conservation Board, the City of Spencer, and the Prairie Flower.
