On Sunday, October 19th, twenty- two Hevreh volunteers gathered to help on the southern portion of the Riverfront Trail located on Bridge Street.
Their mission was to battle the invasive plants that are overwhelming this riparian ecosystem area. The industrious adults and kids quickly learned to identify and remove bittersweet, burning bush, and multiflora rose.
GBLC Board Member and work party leader Jane Angelini was impressed! " The group was so well organized and ambitious! I couldn't believe how hard they all worked and how much they accomplished! "
The mission of Great Barrington Land Conservancy is to engage the community in conservation and stewardship. The work party demonstrated how each of us can make a difference - especially when we work together! This Hevreh work group donated a total of 44 hours of community service and made a big difference for the environment!
Thank you Hevreh volunteers! You're amazing!
