Help is needed with eradicating Garlic Mustard at Tiny Marsh. This seemingly innocuous plant displaces native woodland plants and disrupts complex soil organisms necessary for tree germination and growth. It can completely wreck a forested area. Fortunately it is easy to pull, and the time to do it is:
10 am to 12 noon on Saturday and Sunday, June 11-12 and June 18-19.
This effort is being supervised by the Matchedash Bay, Tiny Marsh and Marl Lake board. Volunteers should wear long sleeves, gloves, long pants tucked into socks or boots to keep insects at bay. Bring a small handfork or trowel and insect repellant. For more information call Kate at 705-322-2545 or Pat at 705-361-2637.
