Eggers is a mosaic of wooded ridges where spring wildflowers thrive and narrow wetlands are filled with sedges, marsh grasses, and waterfowl. Help remove invasive species that threaten to crowd out native plants! Trained leaders show you how to identify plants that don’t belong and demonstrate how to safely use hand tools.
We will be meeting near the Caretaker’s Building – you won’t miss us!
A few things to keep in mind:
- Make sure to bring your own water
- Dress for the weather and wear layers
- Sturdy, closed-toe shoes are recommended
- Don’t wear clothes you would mind getting dirty
- Tools, gloves, and light snacks will be provided
For questions, please contact Gloria Orozco, Senior Field Organizer, at gloria@fotfp.org.
