April 24th- the McKinney Parks Foundation cleared deadfall from an area of paved trail and removed trees which are diseased and could create a hazard to trail users.
April 24th – Partnership with other volunteer organizations is very important to our work. The MPF and Blackland Prairie Master Naturalists work together to identify areas of the greenspace to plant milkweed on May 1st. The tools from the grant will help us accomplish our milkweed planting event on May 1st.
