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. Please dress for the weather – today’s forecast for Saturday is Day 35°, Snow 35%, Wind ESE 7mph. Scattered snow showers during the morning, then partly to mostly cloudy for the afternoon.
When: January 6, 2023 at 1:00 – 3:00pm.
Why? To continue recent progress made on opening up the woods to sunlight, so the oaks, hickories and other native seedlings can thrive. We’ll concentrate on removing invasive shrubs such as buckthorn and honeysuckle on the north edge of the central 40 acres. We’ll teach you to identify them by their bark and their bite.
Never done this before: Welcome! We’ll show you what to do and how to do it!
