There is an opportunity to participate in planting of indigenous plants and removal of invasive plants along the creek at Birkdale Farm.
|
As previously related in emails, this past summer there was another stage of restoration of Brooklyn Creek on the property of Birkdale Farm. The next stage is much more user friendly for any gardeners or invasive plant pullers and an opportunity to see the results of recently completed work. Perhaps we will see some avid Pink salmon travellers that were making their way up Brooklyn Creek on September 26th!

Please review the information below and pick some dates to participate in some helpful volunteer work.

Activities will include planting native shrub species in the riparian area that we cleared of invasive blackberry to allow access for the channel restoration. Plants will be in 1-gallon pots (<10lbs>
|
We recommend bringing work gloves, weather appropriate wear, good work shoes or boots and some snacks. We would also really appreciate if anyone has a shovel that they could bring and work with. We have several to share but may be limited if we have a good turnout.

We hope to see you there!
