Help us remove garlic mustard that threatens to take over this valuable woodland. Garlic mustard removal is an easy project, but we will be covering a lot of ground, so come prepared for a hike.

Volunteers learn plant identification, see rare ecosystems, connect with others and more. No experience is necessary and equipment and instruction are provided.
