Black Partridge Woods Volunteer Workdays
Black Partridge Woods is one of the first dedicated nature preserves in Illinois. The 80 acre site features river bluffs, ravine forests, and spring-fed streams, and boasts one of the earliest and most diverse displays of spring wildflowers in the region. Restoration activities center on the removal of invasive species like honeysuckle and barberry with the use of loppers and hand saws. In season we will build and burn brush piles, collect and distribute native seed or work to control herbaceous weeds.
Directions: Black Partridge Woods parking lot, on Bluff Road 1.2 miles west of Lemont Road in Lemont. Bluff Road is roughly 111th St. south.
