As part II of our burning bush removal/native plant restoration project, we will be removing more burning bush today! Easton has received a grant from the Taunton River Watershed Alliance to remove the invasive burning bush plants (and multi-flora rose, buckthorn, honeysuckle and bittersweet) at Old Pond Conservation Area and the Bay Circuit Trail. Part I of our project began in 2025. Over 120 shrubs and 20 trees were planted last year by volunteers. This project has been approved again by TRWA and we’ll be moving further into the conservation commission property to manage the invasive plants. In the Spring, we’ll be replanting with native species again.
