Volunteer workday details below: 

Workday #1 Morning: Pull invasive plants on the Riverstone Preserve
When: Sunday, September 24, 9-11 AM
What: Pulling (mostly) oriental bittersweet seedlings. We’ll teach you how to identify the invasive plants, if you haven’t done this before.
Where: Meet at the west end of the Sibosen Interpretive Trail, where it meets the West River Trail. It’s about 1 1/2 miles from the Marina Trailhead and from the Rice Farm Rd Trailhead. You can also get there by parking at the Fox Farm Rd, trailhead, and walking down the access road to the WRT, turn left and you’ll soon see the sign for Sibosen Trail on the right. Biking in from the trailheads gets you there more quickly, if you’re able to do that.
What to bring: Water, work gloves, insect repellant, snack if needed.

Workday #2 Afternoon: Dig and rake out ditches and culverts on the West River Trail
When: Sunday, Sept 24, Noon to 3 pm
What: Digging and raking out ditches and culverts
Where: Meet at the Marina Trailhead at noon. 
What to Bring: Work gloves, insect repellant and a metal rake if you have one, but we will have extras on hand. Sandwiches and drinks will be provided.

Thanks and we hope to see you there!
