Have you visited any of these local parks? Do you know anyone who works with any of these ‘friends of’ groups? There may be something useful that you could bring back to help our group. It would be so helpful if you could report your findings back to the group through this website, facebook, email or by attending a meeting and sharing your work. Please let us know if you already have links with any of these groups.
