The St. Joseph Wetland is located on both sides of US 150 on the west edge of St. Joseph. Trails are not available, and guests are asked to limit their footprint as much as possible.
At the end of the month-long challenge, the Champaign County Soil and Water District will compile the findings and present them to the community in order to help the entire community appreciate the wetland ecosystem and make better management decisions for this ecosystem.
