Algae Harvest
This event is free, no registration required.
We are draining the Little Lake the week of October 11, and by Saturday we should have a nice crop of dried algae to harvest. Algae may be used to make paper or for compost (there's a good description of how to compost it here: http://www.gardenguides.com/96546-compost-pond-algae.html).
Bring your knee boots (it will be mucky in the pond), your forks or rakes, and a basket or container for hauling the algae away. First come, first served!
