About the Event
Leopold's Preserve is partnering with the Human-Beaver Coexistence Fund (HBCF) for an educational and productive volunteer day to protect oak saplings and other trees from being felled by resident beavers. Alison Zak, founder and director of HBCF, will teach participants how to coexist with beavers by wrapping trees to protect them from chewing. Then we'll work together to put our new skills into practice! Materials and training provided. Please bring work gloves and wire cutters if you have them.
