In July we will be working on removing Purple Loosestrife, an ivasive species. Please dress for the weather (long pants are best to protect your legs)and wear boots or sturdy shoes. Bring a lot water to drink (it gets hot out there) and bug repellent if needed. Safety goggles and gloves are available, but feel free to bring your own.
