Yet Another Water Chestnut Pull!

On Thursday, August 25th, from 5pm-8pm Groundwork Somerville, with support from the Mystic River Watershed Association and the Friends of the Mystic River, will host a community event focusing on the removal of invasive water chestnut from the Mystic River. Using canoes, kayaks, and small boats, volunteers will pull water chestnuts out of the water by hand and then deposit the harvested plants at a designated shore site. We've had tremendous success at past events so decided to add another!
When: Thursday, Aug. 25, 5pm-8pm (arrive anytime after 5!)
Where: Field at Auburn Street, Medford, MA along the river - head towards the dumpster!

SIGN UP for this event today!
