Please join us for as we work to return this little park to a more natural state by removing English ivy, Japanese honeysuckle, privet and other non-native invasive plants. We will also cut the ivy at the base of trees. It’s a small but improtant part of our neighborhood, a sponge for rain, tree canopy for cooling and habitat for many.
- Sunday, March 6 from 1-3 p.m.
- If you can’t stay the entire time, that is fine. Every little bit helps.
- Bring gloves, hand clippers, loppers & a small saw if you can. An old screwdriver is sometimes helpful for prying vines away from the tree so they are easier to cut.
- We will meet in the cul de sac at the end of Northrop Street.

Here are some of the flora you could find in this little park…
Indian Pipe, a flowering plant that has no chlorophyll , usually seen in June. 
Sassafras is just one of the 28 native tree species identified so far. 
Cranefly orchid leaves come up in fall, disappear in spring 
Cranefly orchid flowers appear in July 
A few native azalea have been found. 
Small tree seedlings don’t have a chance in areas thick with ivy. We hope this little white oak will grow to maturity. 
We must save the tree canopy. You can help!
