Periodic Commitment

Arbor is a program devoted to learning about the environment while aiding in the restoration and cleanup of the Carleton Cowling Arboretum and McKnight Prairie. Activities include collecting prairie grass seeds, removing brush and trash, and planting and protecting native tree seedlings. Volunteers spend three to four Saturdays a term working in the Arb to help the Arb Crew maintain this expansive natural preserve.
