Description

Join us to HELP REMOVE GARLIC MUSTARD!!

We will hike in from 1st Line EHS picking invasive garlic mustard (reusable grocery bags or garbage bags work well). We will pick garlic mustard in that area for a while, dump it, then hike back out. Plenty of native spring plants to admire along the way - reducing invasive species will give these species a chance to thrive!
