Join a "Whack Attack" this Saturday
This Saturday, May 6, from 9:30 am to 12:00 noon will be our next invasive plant removal workday with State Parks biologists. We are continuing our work along the trail in the Bynum Mill area.
Invasive plant workdays typically involve identifying and removing non-native plants using clippers, pruners, saws, and other non-motorized hand tools. Learn about invasive plants and removal techniques. Bring your own loppers or hand pruners, work gloves, insect repellent, and water. Long pants, long sleeve shirt, and closed toe shoes are recommended.
WHO: Volunteers 18 and older. Youth volunteers 12 to 17 can participate as well if accompanied by adult.
