Conservation Work Party

Help care for our woods, meadows, beaches, and open space. In September, we’ll help continue all the great work of our summer Student Conservation Crew, managing invasive species in Blakely Harbor.  Pulling ivy off and away from trees, digging up blackberries, and encouraging our native plants to thrive.
