The Cass County Conservation Board is holding a Preserving Pellett Memorial Woods Workday, this Saturday, November 14th. The free program will be held at the Pellett Memorial Woods outside of Atlantic from 1 until 4 pm (feel free to come and go as you wish). The Board is looking for those volunteers who wish to be a part of the preservation process and may contribute, by assisting with the removal of honeysuckle bushes.

If you want to help, please dress appropriately (wearing long pants, long sleeves and gloves), and bring loppers if you have them. Those in attendance will have the opportunity to improve one of Southwest Iowa’s best locations to observe spring woodland wildflowers.

Pellett Memorial Woods is located just outside of Atlantic, ½ mile north and ¾ mile east of the KJAN radio station. The event will be cancelled if there is inclement weather.
