Invasive Management Volunteer Day at Sisters Hill
Saturday, December 14, 2024 from 9:00am – 1:00pm

Join the Winnakee and the Dutchess Land Conservancy for a morning of removing invasive plants from a locally significant forest. We had so much fun we’re doing it again! Invasive species can quickly overtake a trail, having a negative impact on the local ecosystem as well as on hikers’ ability to easily traverse and enjoy their time on the trail. Please join us to help work on a section of trail at Winnakee Land Trust’s Sisters Hill Woods Preserve in Stanford, where we will clear an area of burning bush and other invasive species. There will be tasks for all ages and fitness levels. Come and learn to identify these invasives, and to be a part of making this trail more enjoyable for all!
Lunch will be provided.
