The Landmark Society is looking for volunteers to help with garlic mustard removal at our Stone-Tolan Historic Site in Brighton. Garlic mustard is an invasive biennial that inhibits beneficial native plants from growing. We have a small window of time to remove it between when it emerges and sets seed. Luckily, it can be pulled out of the ground, usually by hand. There is a LOT of it, so make it a party and share this with your friends! We may set another date the following weekend if needed. You can read more about garlic mustard here: https://www.nature.org/en-us/about-us/where-we-work/united-states/indiana/stories-in-indiana/garlic-mustard/
Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear for working in the woods. Work gloves are recommended, and we have extra on hand. Snacks will be provided! Please bring a reusable water bottle to help reduce waste.
Parking:
There is plenty of parking on-site. Use the gravel path leading from the parking lot behind the house to meet in front of the barn.
Restroom:
There is a restroom available.
Rain Date:
In case of rain, we will hold this event on Sunday, May 3rd from 9:00AM - 12:00PM. You will be notified via the email you include below if the rain date is necessary.
As always, we are thankful for our volunteers and your generosity!
