May 11: Invasive Plants Removal

Garlic mustard is cropping up under the shrub border along the Garden’s main Avenue of the Botanical Gardens. Our MEVO volunteers will be working to remove the invasive plants. Not only will this project help control an invasive weed, it will also make the main drag much more attractive for the tons of visitors this time of year. Come out for a couple hours on a Saturday afternoon to enjoy making the botanical garden an even more beautiful place! We will meet at the Ramapo Reservation at 2:00 PM and then commute to the New Jersey Botanical Garden in Ringwood, NJ. Bring water to stay hydrated and wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. The event will be over about 5:00 PM. For questions, you can email David at davidjaychoi@mevoearth.org or call 201- 916-4530. To RSVP for any of these events, simply send an email to mevovolunteers@mevoearth.org with your name, age, phone number and the subject line “Botanical Gardens.” You can also RSVP through our Facebook.
