This Saturday event will be one of the most important Stewardship events of the year. We will experiment with ways to best attack a blackberry patch on the wildlife sanctuary area of Alder Creek Farm. This event will help us understand how we can begin to bring this problem invasive under control.
You will not be required to wander into a blackberry thicket! (unless you want to) There will be several ways you can help out, from pulling up the long branches to make sure the outstretched canes don’t take root, to helping us dig out the main stems by their roots, and everything in between.
Please meet at Alder Creek Farm at 9:00 a.m. (see map, below)
We will have treats and gloves, but if you have a favorite pair, please bring them along (especially if they’re nice and thick). If you have chaps, they might help too.
SEE YOU THERE!
