It’s time for the Toadlet fencing work party – Monday June 24th, 2019
It takes a small army to help us install temporary fencing to direct the toadlets to their tunnel!
The tadpoles are getting closer to metamorphosing into tiny toadlets, and soon will be making their annual mass migration to the surrounding forest.
We need your help to make sure they get there safely!
You can help us install silt fencing in a hay field by hammering stakes into the ground and laying down hosing, to ensure the little toadlets can’t sneak their way underneath.
The most challenging part of this work is navigating over the uneven ground, climbing over fences, and working in a hay field with no shade. Volunteers must be prepared to work in hot conditions (please bring a water bottle) and will need work gloves and good footwear (hiking boots recommended).
Location: Meeting in east Chilliwack to carpool to the site, details will be confirmed via email when you sign-up
Start Time: 10:00 am
End Time: 2:00 pm
As always, PIZZA LUNCH will be provided for everyone who helps out!
Please note: The FVC requires volunteers to sign up for this event in advance. We need to ensure we have enough supplies, and that you have accurate directions as there is no cell service at this location.
Please e-mail or call 604-625-0066 if you have any questions
