Thank you to Malcolm Pirnie volunteers and Adena Brook neighbors!

Saturday was our 7th Earth Day effort to remove garlic mustard from Overbrook Ravine Park. Last year we removed 2 tons of it and this year we had to look for it! Earth Day is also our annual native tree planting. Our focus was encouraging neighbors to plant native trees in their ravine-adjacent yards. All volunteers were invited to take native trees home to plant on their properties. What a beautiful and successful morning!
