The forecast had been rain, but it turned out to be a warm and mostly sunny afternoon—perfect for enticing our volunteers to come out and help clear the Frautschi Point woods area of Garlic Mustard plants. Roma Lenehan, the Friends great Garlic Mustard warrior, explained that this is an "off-year" with many small plants near the ground, not yet in bloom in their first year. Our strong team of 15 volunteers and leaders Roma and Bryn Scriver, Preserve volunteer coordinator, pulled for 2 1/2 hours. Then our leaders compacted the harvested plants into 6 large bags. These volunteer days in the woods with the Friends are wonderful hours of connecting with old friends, welcoming new friends, learning and sharing and, of course, working a few hours for a great cause. Come and join our Wildflower Planting Party on Saturday May 18, 9:00 am–Noon at Frautschi Point.
