Event Description:
Give Back Day is where we ask our business community to support our overall community by working with nonprofits and town services in a task or project they need assistance with. What a better way to come together by a little bit of service?
Help improve the ecosystem of White Deer Park by removing invasive plant species from various habitats. Park staff will lead the team in hand-pulling smaller plants and cutting and treating (with herbicide) larger plants using various tools. Volunteers must wear long pants and sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Bring pruners and loppers if you have them, along with work gloves. Park staff will have tools and gloves available to borrow as well. Volunteers will be given a quick invasive plant identification lesson before starting. Our target species will include Chinese Privet, Autumn Olive, and English Ivy.
