Scarlett Mitchell Woods entrance sign

Workday – March 1, 2025

Who: Anyone who’s willing and able to help. Scarlett students are welcome to participate but you must bring a parent.

Where: Meet at the bench near the showcase at the main entrance to the woods.

What to bring: Hand tools if you have them – saws, loppers, clippers. Snacks and water if desired.

When: March 1, 2025 at 1 – 3:00pm.

Why? We’ll continue to cut invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle along the north edge of the school property. Not sure what these shrubs look like without their leaves and berries? We’ll be happy to teach you to identify them by their bark and their bite.

  • Clean up trash on Ellsworth Road where it intersects with the school property
  • Cut down any honeysuckle that are fruiting and easy to identify this time year – anywhere in the central 40 acres
  • Remove and replace broken boards in walkways along the pond

Never done this before: Welcome! We’ll show you what to do and how to do it!


What we did: N/A
