About this event
Join us for an evening seed collection event at Larry Price's property in Russellville. Russellville evenings are typically a bit drier and breezier, but please remember to dress accordingly for trudging through tallgrass prairie.
Target species include Meadowbeauty and St. John's Wort, both of which can be found in the lower, wetter area of the field. We may also check for native rushes/sedges and mallows in the wetter areas.
Target species for the drier areas include American Germander and Naked Stem Sunflower.
Bring (if you have them) small loppers or rose snips. If you have a receptacle that you can use for collecting seeds, please bring it. DIY options: clean out a milk jug, ice cream tub, or similar item. Cut an opening in the top for milk jugs or the like, and attach a strap or old belt to it so you can hang it around your frame while you collect. The strap is optional but allows for two-handed work.
From Conway, take I-40 West to Exit 84 and turn right on Bradley Cove Road (you will pass a large Flying J truck-stop on the right), approximately 1.5 miles, (across from a brand new Dollar General) turn right on Old Cove Road.
On Old Cove Rd, the 1st possible turn on the left is a neighbor. Left side turns #2 and #3 are both Larry’s. Use the 3rd turn in on your left (metal gate and gravel drive), this leads to Larry's barn.
