Our dedicated volunteers have continued their work removing invasive plants along Town Run. From aquatic invaders like watercress and yellow iris to bank-side intruders such as multiflora rose, our teams have made impressive progress in restoring the natural health of the watershed.
Under the guidance of project leader Sandy Brown, volunteers met on second Saturdays from May through October, combining efforts to clear invasive growth and promote a healthy ecosystem. Community members of all ages, kids and adults alike, came together to make a tangible impact, helping Town Run flow more freely and supporting the plants and wildlife that depend on the stream.
This ongoing initiative highlights the power of community stewardship in maintaining and restoring local waterways. Whether it’s learning about native plants, engaging in hands-on work, or simply enjoying time outdoors, every volunteer contributes to a stronger, healthier watershed.
