December 15
Brown Preserve is a 49-acre preserve on Henderson Inlet that contains a mix of forest types, three wetland systems, and a pristine estuarine environment Part of the preserve is adjacent to a grass emergency airstrip!
Near the airstrip, there is an old house site that has become an ivy stronghold. Past volunteer events have made a dent in the ivy, and this event will continue to put the pressure on! We will be processing some of our old ivy piles and picking up trash as we see it on the property. If you are a Scot’s broom enthusiast, have no fear. There will be Scot’s broom to pull, and we are close to eradication in some areas.
