Seeding and Planting at Longhorn Shores
December 16, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Join us for the final volunteer opportunity of the year and make a lasting impact on the Butler Trail. Don’t miss the chance to give back at our Shoreline Stewardship Volunteer event this Saturday, December 16th for restoration planting at Longhorn Shores! Register here.
The Trail Conservancy continues to enhance the Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail by planting a diversity of native plant species following the invasive work by contractors. A combination of sedges, grasses, and forbs provides a diverse ground cover and suppresses weed pressure while insulating the bank from erosion in regions between the Trail and the Lake.
Event Details:
— Meeting Location: Near the Longhorn Shore Dam (Google Map Link)
— Parking Information: Free parking at Krieg Baseball fields

The Trail Conservancy’s mission is to protect, enhance, and connect the Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail at Lady Bird Lake for the benefit of all.
