Ivy Pull at Shu Swamp
Saturday, April 12, 2014 - 10:00am - Ivy Pull at Shu
Swamp
Join
the Shu Crew to help restore one of the finest preserves on Long Island
by controlling English ivy and garlic mustard, two non native invasive
plant species that are threatening this sensitive ecosystem. Wear
clothes and shoes you don’t mind getting muddy and please bring garden
gloves if you have them. Tasty snacks and extra gloves will be provided
to the volunteers.
Directions: From Route 25A in East Norwich,
take Route 106 north to Oyster Bay. Make left on to Lexington Avenue
then left on to West Main Street. At the Mill Pond (on the left), bear
to the right as if to go to Bayville. At first traffic light (water will
be on your right) make a left onto Cleft Road. Take Cleft Road to
Frost Mill Road, make a left. (If you wind up on the causeway going over
Beaver Dam, you have gone too far.) Shu Swamp will be on your right
after you go under the train trestle.
DO NOT USE YOUR GPS. It will take you to the wrong location.
