UPCOMING ACTIVITIES

  • June 3, 2023 9:00 am – VOLUNTEERS NEEDED to Deal with Invasive Plants in Sarg Bay Park  Yellow-flag Irises are invading the wetland near the lower parking lot.  In hopes of potentially eradicating them over the next few years, concerted effort must be made now.  

Please join us as we take action.  We will cut 2 inches below the waterline (only effective way to kill the plant) and remove the flowers of those we can’t get to.    Please bring your water gear of choice (wetsuit, hip waders, or bathing suit/t-shirt and water shoes), cutting shears to move flowers or stems below the waterline, and gloves, as some people are sensitive to the chemicals produced by the plant, especially when stems are cut.  Please note, there are no leeches in the wetland!
