Invasive Plant Pulling Party in Sprague. Volunteers are invited to join UConn staff to control mile-a-minute weed (Persicaria perfoliata), a highly invasive plant, at Mohegan State Forest and surrounding areas along the Shetucket River in Sprague on Wednesday, July 24, from 8:30 to 11 am. The plants will be removed by hand-pulling. Rain or shine unless weather is severe (thunderstorms). Dress for the weather, bring plenty of water and snacks. The walk to the site is slightly over a half-mile, with thorny vegetation and some wet areas. Boots, gardening gloves, long pants, a long-sleeved shirt and a hat are recommended. Insect repellent may also be useful. Contact/RSVP Logan Senack ([email protected], 860-208-3900) or Donna Ellis ([email protected], 860-486-6448) to confirm your attendance or if you have any questions. The meeting location and directions will be provided to you at that time. For those who have joined us in prior years, we will meet at the same parking area on Waldo Road.
