Join the Habitat Restoration Crew on Saturday, September 30th for a fun-filled morning of removing invasive plants from Button Bay State Park! The event is from 9am to 12pm and all are welcome to participate. We will learn about the threat invasive species pose to our forests, how to identify and remove them, and get our hands dirty pulling invasive plants!

Please come ready to spend the morning working outside – closed toe shoes, long pants, layers, and a full water bottle are recommended!

This event is part of National Public Lands Day. Coordinated by the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF), National Public Lands Day is the largest single-day volunteer effort for public lands in the nation and is an opportunity for people to connect with and give back to the public lands in their community.

If you are interested in participating in the largest national single-day volunteer effort for public lands, please contact Heather at ANR.FPRWeedVolunteers@vermont.gov or at (802) 505-0257.
