Volunteer Opportunity – Pickens Pollinator Pocket Workday
July 27 @ 8:00 am - 11:00 am
>>Record in VMS (including your travel time) as: Beason’s Crossing Park Pollinator Pocket near Columbus: Gideon Lincecum Master Naturalists<<
it’s time to meet again in Colorado County with our team to work on cleaning up the vines and dead branches at Beason’s Park. All are invited to come to our second workday on Monday, July27th, 2026, from 8-11am. ( Address is 3614 US-90, Columbus,TX 78934.)
Please bring branch loppers, ladders, maybe a chainsaw to remove some extra trees. It would be helpful if someone can bring a truck to haul cuttings to the burn pile.
We are still waiting to hear if we will be awarded the H.E.B./TMN Texas Pollinator Grant to pay for signage and advertisement.
The 4th Mondays will be the regular monthly work days for the new riparian pocket garden inside Beason’s Crossing Park in Columbus.

As the Gideon Lincecum Chapter revives the circular riparian area, we will trim the mature garden removing invasives and ill-placed specimens. We will add a variety of plants native to the Post Oak Savannah, many harvested from Colorado County TMN GLC members’ properties. Join us at the circular garden with a drive around it near the pavilion in this small park. Bring your favorite loppers, pruners, shovel, and lots of water and sun protection. Bug repellent may be needed.
Join us 4th Mondays at 8-11:00am!
