Incorporating the Celery Farm and Screech Owl Companion blogs
Hooray for Our Celery Farm Volunteers
If you’ve been by the Pirie Platform of late (the trails are a bit muddy), you’ve seen the miracle. Until recently, you couldn’t observe much of anything from the observation platform because of the overgrown Phragmites — despite several of us whacking away at it every year or two.
This time, our crew of volunteers took a whack at it, and all I can is "Wow, thank you!"
The volunteers include Christian Alcaide, Tracey Schiess, Jim Newell, Neil MacLennan, Ken Wiegand, Carl Krag, Jeff Dugan, and Lee Stoeski. Not sure all of them were involved in this overhaul, but the entire crew has been incredible. Can’t thank them enough!
