Sign UpThank You, Youth Mission Groups!
A huge "Thank You!" to the Middle School youth from Montview Presbyterian Church who came out last Thursday to volunteer at The Land! Montview Presbyterian is the third youth group to make The Land part of their local mission trip this summer. Youth groups that come to The Land spend the day learning about the prairie ecosystem while working on projects such as mulching pathways, planting seeds, and pulling weeds! This past Thursday the youth from Montview completed mulching the pedestrian pathway, planted a fall crop in the garden, and oiled the sun shed!

Rattlesnakes may be found in this area. They are important members of the natural community. They will not attack, but if disturbed or cornered, they will defend themselves. Give them distance and respect.
Important Points:
- Rattlesnakes only bite people in self-defense
- Rattlesnakes don’t have to be coiled to bite.
- Rattlesnakes don’t always rattle before biting.
- Snakes prefer 70˚F to 90˚F but may be out in the sun at 60˚F.
- Less than 0.1% of bites are fatal. Get help quickly.
- Never intentionally approach a rattlesnake. 56% of bites occur when people pursue the snake.
Bottom Line:
- Wear high boots to walk through the grass.
- Watch the ground as you walk.
- If you can’t see the ground in grass or weeds, move slowly.
- Do not run on ground you cannot see.
- When you see or hear a snake leave the area immediately and warn others.
- Make sure the area is safe before taking a pet off-leash.
