February Stewardship Work Day at Baltimore Woods
February Stewardship Work Day at Baltimore Woods
Come be a part of our volunteer work teams at Baltimore Woods! Join a new community, learn new skills, spend time outside, and give back as a volunteer through stewarding the preserve for all to enjoy.
This month's Stewardship Work Day will be an invasive species work day, with the goal of removing invasive species from an area that we hope to replant with native trees this spring. Before the area is ready to be planted with natives, we must first reduce the cover of invasive plants including bush honeysuckles and common privet. Invasive plant ID and management will be a feature of this workday.
More details: Participants should wear long pants, close-toed shoes, work gloves, bring an appropriate amount of water, and be prepared to work. Work days can be somewhat strenuous at times. Heavy rain will postpone the work day. These volunteer projects are for ages 14 and up. Participants 14-18 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Participants should plan to meet the Land Steward in the main parking lot at the start of the work day.
