Bring your family and friends to spend time in Kansas City’s most biodiverse natural spaces and learn about nature in a fun way! Participants will be guided alongside conservation professionals to experience our remnant native ecosystems while hand collecting native seeds.
Afterward, we’ll celebrate your hard work with free s’mores, hot cider and a bonfire. This work helps to preserve and restore the health and resilience of our public lands. Kansas City WildLands is a team of Bridging The Gap. No experience necessary!
