Bring your garden tools and join us!
Saturday, May 3, is “I Love My Park Day” all across New York State.
All concerned citizens and invited to join us in Hastings! You’ll work with with members of the Garden Club of Irvington and Friends of the Old Croton Aqueduct to:
• Pick up trash on the Aqueduct.
• Remove invasive plants like mugwort and tree-strangling vines.
• Plant native shrubs.
It’s a family program co-sponsored by Parks and Trails New York and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
When: 10 am – 1 pm on May 3, rain or shine
Where: Pick a spot along the Aqueduct Trail to help with weeding and cleanup. For example, the pollinator garden just
south of Irvington Main Street is a location that needs work.
Bring: Work gloves, a leaf bag, and, if you have them, a weeder, spade and shovel. Plus your own snacks and a filled reusable water bottle (and help say NO to more plastic).
You’ll Get: Expert instruction on how to identify and get rid of invasive plants and tree-strangling vines, and lots of satisfaction,
We look forward to enjoying working alongside with you there!
