Eco Service Projects
Horizon, in partnership with Cincinnati Nature Center, is working on a project to restore native plants and biodiversity on our grounds. Horizon is seeking those passionate about improving our environment. Eco Service Projects are planned throughout the year to remove invasive plants on the Horizon grounds and plant native flowers and trees.
An Eco Service Project is planned for Saturday, February 7th from 10 a.m. - noon. at Horizon.
Outdoor activities will include:
- Cutting and treating invasive honeysuckle
- Fountain Lake bed cleanup
- Seed scattering in the prairie
- Wood duck box installation
Indoor activities will include:
- Birdhouse building and painting
- Wood duck box construction
- Take-home pinecone bird feeder construction
Eco Service Projects are planned on the second Saturday of each month, from March - November from 9:30-11:30 a.m. at Horizon.
The focus changes based on the weather, but outdoor activities include cutting invasive plants, piling or removing brush, planting native beds and more. Indoor activities will include a variety of projects designed to prepare for the next season.
Everyone is welcome to join in these service dates, so bring the whole family! Children under 12 who would like to participate in a service project should be accompanied by a parent.
