Invasive Plant Removal

Get Connected Icon Happens On Apr 25, 2026

Description

Celebrate Earth Month with a day of service at Brewster's Woods Wildlife Sanctuary!

Spend your morning helping with invasive plant removal as part of Mass Audubon’s Statewide Volunteer Day. We will be working on pulling Garlic Mustard in an area adjacent to our main trail.

  • Bring your own water bottle to stay hydrated; we’ll have light snacks ready to keep you energized. 

  • The area can be boggy at times, so boots or good shoes are highly recommended. Gloves, bug spray, and sunscreen are also recommended. 

  • Due to the physical nature of our project and the tools we’ll be using, this project is only for adult volunteers aged 18 and older.

We will meet in front of the Garage at 221 Balls Hill Rd (next to the blue work truck).
