Please join us for woodland maintenance. We will be removing invasives, focusing on porcelainberry vines, Japanese knotweeds and Italian Arum It’s a great opportunity to see what can be done with all native plants. Learn more about the Green Acres Habitat: https://www.lfwa.org/meadow-green-acres.

LFWA, in collaboration with MCDOT and Westbrook Elementary School, has planted native trees, shrubs, grasses and wildflowers to the area, creating a haven for native pollinators and song birds.

Bring gloves and weeding tools (trowel, weeder) or use ours. Wear long pants and closed toe shoes and bring plenty of water to drink.

We will meet at the bottom of Yorktown Road where it dead ends into the Little Falls Branch. The closest address for GPS is 5301 Yorktown Road.
