Final Friday Restoration Workday at Remington Grove Johnsburg
February 24, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Is it time for another Final Friday already?! Yes, it is!! Come hang out with your favorite group of restoration warriors as we take out invasive brush and enjoy friendly banter around a toasty campfire. We made a huge dent last week cleaning up the fallen log obstacles that were making it very difficult to manage invasive species along the creek area. This week we’ll be working in an area between our conservation easement and a retention pond where poplar trees are starting to have a dominating presence.
Directions: From the intersection of 120 and 31 in McHenry, go north on 31 for 2.5 miles. Take a left (west) onto Alexander Blvd, which is the entrance to the Remington Grove Subdivision and another left onto Monica lane. You may park along the curb on Monica lane. Nearest Address: 3301 Aubrey Dr. Johnsburg
Nearest Address: 3704-3705 Monica Ln, Johnsburg, IL 60051
