Where to Meet: 904 W. Grant Rd., on the NW corner of Grant and Fairview. We will leave cars here, then board vans to drive to Picacho Peak. There is a coffee shop at the meeting place, which might be open that morning. We will advise one week prior. For contact the morning of the trip, call/text 520-971-9335.
What to Bring: Sack lunch, water in a reusable bottle, hat, walking stick (optional).
What to Expect: We will learn to identify different flowers and understand drought strategies and resource competition for these colorful gems. Because this is also a service trip done in conjunction with the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management, we will assist the Park staff in digging out stinknet, a newcomer invasive weed. Gloves and tools will be provided.
