VOLUNTEERS STILL NEEDED:
Join us on Saturday, October 3, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM for a volunteer workday at NICHES Granville Sand Barrens Preserve in Tippecanoe County.

Volunteers will help restore this rare natural habitat by dragging previously cut brush and woody debris to a wood chipper for removal. Clearing this material helps maintain the open conditions needed to support the unique sand barrens ecosystem and the diverse plants and wildlife that depend on it.
