Join us for the Garlic Mustard Challenge! The Garlic Mustard Challenge in New England is a regional effort to restore natural ecosystems and prevent the further spread of garlic mustard (Allaria petiolata). In North American ecosystems garlic mustard grows and spreads rapidly and invasively, an uncontrolled "weed", choking out native plant species and negatively impacting the herbivores that depend upon them for food. We will be pulling garlic mustard behind Oyster River Middle School. Gloves and sunscreen will be provided - please wear closed-toe shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather! At noon, we will head over to the Unity Day Cookout on Main Street for some lunch and celebration! ** You have 48 hours prior to this event to remove your name from the list. After that, you must contact Laney Hayward (603-343-6539) or Katelyn Young (603-508-8028) if you cannot make it, or if you cannot find a replacement. If you don't, you will be docked full hours. The first person on the signup sheet should email an attendance list to apothetazeta.service@gmail.com **
