About the Event
SVT's Smith Conservation Land is truly a very unique habitat. It is home to a rare turtle, vernal pools, and protected by the state's BioMap2 ranking system. It has become a popular destination for both locals and visitors to enjoy the beauty of nature. Unfortunately, 22 out of the 54 acres of the property is over-run by Bittersweet, a very aggressive invasive plant.
SVT is implementing multiple forms of control, including root excavation and repeated cutting. Volunteering at this event, you will learn how to excavate Bittersweet roots and help us battle the invasion!
