About the Event
Bring your work gloves for a Garlic mustard pull. Stark Park undertook a massive forest restoration effort last year to clear the land of bittersweet and burning bush. Native trees and native wildflower seeds were planted, but large patches of garlic mustard have also sprung up in the disturbed understory. We will teach you how to recognize and hand-pull this invasive plant, before they go to seed this season. We can also cut back a focal patch of bittersweet and burning bush.
What to bring
Work gloves. If you have clippers, bring them.
