Students explore Smith and Bybee Natural Area.
In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, Metro Parks and Nature will host a stewardship event at Smith and Bybee Wetlands. Join us for a day of planting and mulching! Please note, this stewardship program involves more physical activities such as bending, kneeling, stooping or working with tools for digging and planting.
Cost: free
Ages: all ages
Difficulty: easy
Registration is required. Event size limited to 20 people. Registration is handled through US eDirect, a service of Metro.
Metro will require masks for all individuals — regardless of vaccination status — in outdoor settings in which individuals from different households are unable to consistently maintain physical distance.
Pet policy: To protect plants, wildlife and people, Metro does not allow pets at most regional parks and natural areas. Pets can damage sensitive habitat and threaten wildlife the region has worked to protect. In natural areas where dogs are not allowed, people see more wildlife and get closer to it. Seeing-eye dogs or other service animals are allowed. Please bring cleanup materials.
