Invasive Bittersweet Clean-up at Mystic!
On Sunday, November 7th, join the Mystic River Watershed Association (MRWA) at Riverbend Park in Medford to remove bittersweet, an invasive vine that kills trees, impairs habitat value, and degrades park aesthetics. We’ll be meeting at 17 Chetwynd Rd at 1pm to bike to the Medford Dog Park — a ~12 minute bike ride. Please text me at 267-536-6718 if you plan on joining!
This event has limited spots (only 6 left!) and you must register with MRWA if you want to attend: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScmBViNKpvFJNWXcOJ2jK3gRIs-lKoBEZbv6_x4_kYCpqunJw/viewform
