We’ll follow the Greenway to the stand of Pitch Pines planted in the mid 90s, where we have planted additional pines adjacent to the current stand. Our job will be to dig up new Japanese Knotweed sprouts from around the new pines, and to continue cutting and uprooting Knotweed on the slope down toward the marsh. Protectors will supply gloves and the necessary tools. Please register through Eventbrite at the link below so we know how many volunteers to prepare for (search for Protectors of Pine Oak Woods and select Forest Restoration Workshop from the list). For more information, call Brian Smith (917) 842-6585 or Don Recklies (718) 768-9036. (Service Credit is available.)
