Sonoran Audubon Society will be collaborating with the City of Avondale, City of Phoenix, and ASU at the Tres Rios Wetlands Cleanup. This event will take place on April 24th at Gila River and 91st Avenue. There will be two cleanup shifts — one at 9am-11:30am and another at 1pm-3:30pm. We will arrive at 8:15am to set up and leave at 4:15pm after taking everything down.

We will be distributing native plants and seeds to these cleanup volunteers at both shifts. The plants will be given out on a first-come first-serve basis, with people who show up earlier more likely to receive the plant species of their choice or a plant at all. Each plant will come with a care sheet and printouts from Sonoran Audubon Society to learn more about the Plants for Birds Initiative. To set up and take down the tabling with ample time, we will arrive ~45 minutes before and after the event.

If you’re interested in helping with these plants or have any further questions, please contact [email protected] with the subject line “April 24th Tabling.” Please keep in mind that the weather may be beginning to heat up and to dress appropriately to keep cool.
