Weeding Extravaganza!

Volunteers and several BLM interns spent over two hours pulling invasive cheatgrass, peppergrass, and tumble mustard Friday morning. Besides lots of good conversations and a wonderful lunch the effort provided considerable help to the Interpretive Center, who is working on creating a native plant garden onsite. The garden will feature native plants of the Baker area, complete with interpretive signage that discusses the plants as well as their uses by pioneers and Native Americans of the area.
