Where are all the Fall Fans at this weekend? Outside! Autumnal Afficionados make the best volunteers for nature! Showing support through seasonal stewardship activities makes future falls fabulous. Just a short trip to the north side of Ann Arbor will bring you to the splendid woods and wetlands of Arbor Hills Nature Area. Meet up with Natural Area Preservation (NAP) staff to learn how to easily identify and safely cut down troublesome shrubs, and what kinds of wildlife will be grateful for the help. Meet at the park entrance at the end of Ashburnam Rd . V olunteers will use hand tools to cut small-to-medium shrubs. Workday sites have unpaved trails and require going off-trail.
Preregister through VolunteerHub so NAP can plan on enough staff and supplies for a safe and successful event. For your safety, wear long pants, tall socks, and closed-toe shoes. All minors should be accompanied by a guardian. More information: How to prepare for a NAP workday (PDF).

About Natural Area Preservation
Location:
City of Ann Arbor Parks, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, US
Mission Statement
Natural Area Preservation (NAP) works to protect and restore Ann Arbor's natural areas and to foster an environmental ethic among its citizens. This involves conducting plant and animal inventories, ecological monitoring, and stewardship projects in Ann Arbor parks. These tasks are performed by both staff and volunteers.
Description
Volunteers assist NAP in all aspects of our work, and are vital to NAP's efforts. NAP projects take volunteers well beyond the realm of litter clean-up into working to ​restore and care for natural areas. Through hands-on tasks and scientific knowledge, we encourage a connection between volunteers and their surrounding natural environment. Volunteers play a key role in fostering an environmental ethic in the community. To learn more, visit A2gov.org/NAP
