Help Restore Habitats with Project Native Harvest

You are invited to play a direct role in restoring west-central Indiana's native landscapes by joining Project Native Harvest, NICHES Land Trust's new volunteer seed collection series. From late July through October, volunteers will help collect native seeds from our nature preserves.

• August 14 - Shawnee Bottoms

• August 21 - Granville Sand Barrens

• August 28 - Granville Sand Barrens

Volunteer workdays are held on Fridays from 1:00 - 4:00 pm at preserves within a short drive of Lafayette. No previous experience is necessary – just bring sturdy shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, and a willingness to get your hands a bit dirty. Seasonal conditions determine which species are ready to collect, making every outing a unique opportunity to learn about Indiana's remarkable native flora while contributing to meaningful conservation work.
