Habitat Restoration TeamQuietly and slowly, parts of CVP are being transformed with the help of many volunteers. The Habitat Restoration Team has been working for several years to remove the unwanted invasive nuisance plants, and this spring we started replanting certain areas with native plants suitable for this particular place. We want the wild areas of the Park to be as healthy and friendly to wildlife as possible after three centuries of industrial and agricultural activity and more recent suburbanization.We have been helped by groups from local schools, and from other sources, such as an REI community service project. We always welcome groups or individuals who want to help. But the consistent work force is one that meets monthly on the second Saturday, 9 a.m. (October 6 instead of October 13) at the Sherwood House. We only cancel if there is too much rain and then the rain date is always the next day (Sunday). Please join us. We have tools, but you should wear appropriate clothing for working in the woods. There remains a lot to do. We guarantee a good workout! For more details please call the Park Office at 410-887-2503. |
