    Survey Invasive Plants along the Copperfield Nature Trails

    improved knowledge of invasive pistache vs soapberry vs sumac and learned about girdling female pistache from examples of recent past volunteer work. Always fun to use the extractor tools to remove saplings of invasive trees. Moist soil from recent rains made for easy, fun, satisfying work. Leader is knowledgeable and patient with sharing invasive plant expertise. Beautiful afternoon for volunteer work despite such cool temps overnight. Hope lost gloves were found!

    Trotwood Trail Mulching 2022

    Beautiful Fall day and a great group of volunteers to spread mulch.It was fun and it feels good to be a part of improving the trail tread and enhancing soil health for trees along the trail. And it looks better, too! Project was well run and finished on time (a bit before) so we can enjoy the rest of our Saturday.
