Breanna Wheeler has coordinated restoration activities and engaged community volunteers in efforts to address invasive species and improve the ecological health of the natural area.
Activities over the past two years have included volunteer-led invasive species removal, native plantings, winter seeding, educational walks, and ongoing maintenance of restoration areas. These efforts have involved community members, local college students, and partnerships with organizations focused on natural resource management.
