We picked up lots of trash and also recycled plastics and glass items. I'm pleased with the difference our "clean-up" made.

I focused on removing invasives -- nandina -- and had a great time doing it. So much so that I signed up for the 5 day training course starting on March 20th. Organizers and volunteers were friendly and very nice.

I enjoyed working in the Zilker Botanical Garden. The crew leads were well organized and explained the main task before we started to work. The opening introductions, stretches, and favorite plants helped us get to know each other. My task was "edging," and I enjoyed that work as well as chatting while we worked. The crew leads were continually reminding everyone to drink water, take a break as necessary, and have fun. And I did!

I was amazed by how well organized this recovery effort was. Kudos to volunteers at all levels. I will definitely volunteer again! Thank you for enabling so many volumteers to help our community recover.
