  • Celebrate World Habitat Day with us by volunteering at Lawrence W. Inlow Park on October 7! Proper habitat for plants and animals is a very important aspect of our ecosystem. Removing non-native species from our parks is a way to improve habitat and shape the environment around us. During this event volunteers will work to remove invasive Bush Honeysuckle, which restrains native plants from growing and providing resources like food and shelter.
