Save the date!

Jack Pine Planting Day is set for Saturday, May 6. This is your opportunity to help the Kirtland's Warbler by helping us plant three acres of trees as nesting grounds for the rarest songbird in North America.

This year's site will be on the north side of Five Mile Road, about six miles southeast of Grayling. It's part of the Pere Cheney tract, which historically has been one of the most important Kirtland's Warbler Management Areas.

We'll start planting a 9 a.m. and will work to get about 4,500 trees in the ground by noon. This event will take place rain or shine.

More information to come soon. Stay tuned.
