Join us for a rewarding day to care for and enjoy the beautiful East Branch Ontonagon River in Michigan's Upper Peninsula! 

Work alongside local community experts and volunteers to plant native vegetation to restore a section of river disturbed by recent dam removal work. This community volunteer planting is part of a larger effort led by the U.S. Forest Service - Ottawa National Forest to reconnect 64 miles of the Wild and Scenic-designated East Branch Ontonagon River.
 
Bring your family and friends to this fun opportunity to do meaningful work in your community and get your hands dirty to give back this Indigenous Peoples' Day.   
 
The site is easily accessible and appropriate for all ages. All are welcome!

Planting tools, supplies, food and drinks will be provided. We recommend that participants wear sturdy shoes or muck boots.
