Chamberlin Woods Buckthorn Pull

When

Tuesday, July 23, 2024    
9:00 am to 11:00 am

Where

Chamberlin Woods
Lowell Road, Concord, MA

Event Type

We will meet in the field at Chamberlin Woods. Park on the right-hand shoulder of Lowell Road heading out off Concord across from #1127 and #1155.

We will focus on removing buckthorn from along the trail where we’ve been controlling resprouts. We will manually pull plants or use a weed wrench for more established specimens. Root systems will be managed to prevent re-establishment, and the woody material will be stacked in brush piles.

This location is wooded and will be mostly shaded. Poison ivy can be avoided.

What to Bring:
* Water
* Insect/tick repellant
* Closed toed shoes (required)
* Long sleeves/pants
