It’s planting season and Laura DeCook and Chris Clingan with Mahaska County Conservation will lead the group in a prairie planting that needs to be hand-seeded due to access issues. We will meet at the Cedar Bluffs State Preserve where participants will learn the proper planting techniques for this type of seeding.  This is a Saturday field day starting at 10:00 am, join us for a morning of fellowship and fun!
