Join us at the Barrio Fiesta and unleash your inner gardening hero!

Help us fight for the future of our stunning wildflower meadows. It’s time to tackle the hogweed hooligans and give our native plants the room they need to thrive! Our Rangers and volunteers will help you learn about caring for our native wildflowers and you can enjoy the calming buzz of bees and the flutter of butterflies in the meadows. 

We'll be doing seed collection and giving hogweed the heave-ho and let our meadows bloom brighter than ever!
