The ever-vigilant NPRS teams up with developers, builders, and landowners to rescue native plants that would otherwise be clobbered. The ‘rescues’ are then used in restoration and education projects. Join ‘Super Joy’ to learn more about the trials and triumphs of this hands-on nonprofit organization. Proceeds from this event benefit Discover Life in America, the national park’s biological science and conservation partner. Visit DLiA.org to learn more.”
