While a sign-up sheet was passed around a number of months ago for this purpose, there may be other members who have interest in serving on the committee. If you are interested, and even if you previously signed the sign-up sheet, please contact Mark Greenfield, who is the Board’s liaison to that committee.

If you took some of these bulbs home, please do not plant them in open waterways. They are from the store Uwajimaya and are probably not quite the same plant as our native wapato. We don’t want to take the chance of having a non-native version taking hold and crowding out the native plants. Eat them and enjoy them, or plant them in a backyard pool that is never hydrologically connected to any other surface water.  Please share this information with anyone who might have some of these bulbs.
