Wild Rice Seeding at River Terrace Park

March 8 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm

(MD) (Anacostia Watershed Society) In the late summer of 2024, volunteers helped the Anacostia Watershed Society to collect over 18 pounds of wild rice seed from the wild rice (Zizania aquatica) growing in the wetlands of Kingman Lake. Now the seeds are ready to be planted! Join AWS to propagate the seeds through mudballing (seeding) in wetlands along the River Terrace Park section of the Anacostia River. We will mix the wild rice seeds in mud and toss our wild rice mudballs into exposed mudflats to encourage plant growth.
