Boise River Rewild Project

We are so grateful for the community support and for our ReWild partners including the City of Boise, team leads, plot leads, volunteers and donors who made this project such a success. Our ReWild planting areas are in a stewardship phase, with some w**ding and watering planned, but this page will not be updated going forward.

Super Soaker volunteers watered native plant seedlings at a number of Boise River Rewild Project habitat restoration sites on July 27. Jeneen Newman, Jayne Edgington and Jon Mathews watered plots on Barber Pool as did Scout Troop 132. Helen Fisher, Korenna Aster, Kate Meyer, Paul Spillers, Katie Sheppa and Stephen Montamat tended plots near the future Alta Harris Park site. Every drop of water makes a difference to these small plants that will grow to provide food and habitat for our birds and insects. THANKS!
