Join us for a light day of garden cleanup and maintenance at the Holy Trinity Rain Garden in Altoona. The aromatic asters are still in full bloom at this rain garden even while many of the native perennial plants are entering dormancy. We will have the opportunity to tour the garden and see the late-season flowers, collect seeds from several different native plants, and share knowledge on ecological practices for autumn garden maintenance. We will use this time to clean sections of overgrown pathway and lay down mulch in some areas. The weather is expected to be chilly, so please dress warmly, and bring along some gardening gloves and simple hand tools if you have them. There will be some light physical activity for those able to help with maintenance, but if you'd simply like to observe, learn, and cheer us on, we'll be happy to have you attend!
