TPaRbor Planting Day

The Mission Reach Ecosystem Restoration and Recreation Project is restoring a stretch of the San Antonio River into a quality natural riparian woodland ecosystem. As a part of this project, the San Antonio River Authority has given Texas Public Radio the opportunity to adopt a 3.4-acre stretch of natural area on the southeast corner of the Theo Avenue bridge, which we are calling the TPaRbor.

TPR is calling for volunteers on December 6, from 8:00 a.m. to noon, to assist in the planting of trees, shrubs and native grasses and wildflowers. The work day will result in expanded and improved habitat conditions and connections to the San Antonio River ecosystem.

Coffee and light refreshments will be provided.

Because of space limitations, we must limit this volunteer workday to individuals and families -- no groups or troops, please. You must be 10 years old or older to participate.

Please note, the arbor is a 1/2 mile walk from the parking lot, along the Mission Reach. There will be a shuttle available.

NOTE: This event was originally scheduled for November 8, and was rescheduled due to inclement weather.
