Volunteers are needed in March to plant sagebrush and bitterbrush seedlings in an area east of Boise, where a human-caused fire last summer burned critical winter range for big game, according to Idaho Fish & Game officials.

The planting project will begin on Saturday, March 3. Subsequent planting projects will be conducted on March 10, 17, 24 and 31. Transportation and planting tools will be provided.

For more information, call volunteer coordinator Michael Young, 327-7095, or e-mail michael.young@idfg.idaho.gov.

Volunteer information also is available on the agency’s website at http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/public/about/volunteer/
