Join the Lynden land team—Kyle Welna, Alyx Christensen, Esther Portnoy, and Annalesa Albright--for a volunteer work day (or three) on the grounds. Each year, we drain Little Lake, a shallow, man-made pond, to prepare it for one of our most popular summer camps, Pond Voyage. Little Lake is home to waterfowl and a substantial algae population. If you have an interest in the algae for your papermaking or compost, or if you’d just like to lend us a hand, we will be raking out algae (wet and dry) daily from July 11-13. Pack your rubber boots and bushel baskets (if you want to take some home) and bring along a pitchfork if you have one.
Water and additional tools will be provided. Each participant will receive a Sara Caron Big Lake enamel pin.
