SUNDAY, February 5
TNC's Scout Road Preserve
9:00 A.M. - 12:00 P.M.
On Sunday, February 5, we'll be holding a work party at The Nature Conservancy's "Scout Road Preserve" to continue clearing woody invasives in the savannas/woodlands. If there is sufficient snow cover we will also be burning brush piles.
As there is no parking along Town of Troy public roads during from November - late March, we'll be parking at a private residence that borders the north edge of the preserve. The adjacent landowners, Jim & Barb, have been removing invasive species from their property for the past few years.
Please note the meeting/parking location below is for this particular work party
date only.
Please meet by 9:00 A.M. as we will be walking to the TNC site
(northwest portion of the preserve).
