Pollinator Planting at Branch Creek

September 12, 2025 9am- 3pm

Join Sageland Collaborative to get 400 native wetland plants in the ground at Branch Creek to improve pollinator habitat! These volunteer events are a fun opportunity to cool off in the late summer heat while making an positive impact on Utah’s waterways.

All ages are welcome. Volunteers under 18 years old require a guardian’s signature and those under 15 years old must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

When: Friday, September 12th from 9am-3pm
Where: Branch Creek, ~10 miles east of Coalville, UT (specific meetup details will be shared in a confirmation email following signup).

The project site is approximately a 1 hour drive from the Salt Lake City area. There is no cell phone service, potable water, or restroom facilities at the project site.

What to expect: We will be planting 450 native wetland plants from the Utah Pollinator Habitat Program alongside beaver dam analogs in Branch Creek. We will provide all tools and instruction. Projects typically involve walking under 1 mile over uneven, often muddy terrain.

What we'll provide: 

• A high-quality, fun, and safe volunteer experience

• Extra water, snacks, sunscreen & bug spray

• Extra safety equipment (work gloves, safety glasses), and a first aid kit

• Muck boots/waders in various sizes (W's 5 - M's 13)

• Opportunities to learn about riverscape restoration, pollinators, and native plants while connecting with restoration practitioners and community members

• Resume-building skills relevant to natural resources careers

Attendees are required to fill out Sageland Collaborative’s Volunteer Liability Form & Waiver in order to participate. Minors must have a guardian sign the waiver on their behalf.
