The Friends of Jackson Park Trail invite you to join us for the next trail maintenance work party on September 21, from 10am to 2pm.
We will be cutting back blackberries and other invasive vegetation encroaching on the trail, and removing litter. Please bring hand pruners and stout gloves if you have them, also a source of hydration. We will be meeting for volunteer sign-in at the southwest corner of the trail on 5th ave NE. We hope to see you there! P.S. Monthly work parties are being planned, hopefully for the 3rd Saturday morning every month. We are starting small, by cutting back encroaching vegetation, but we hope to move on to removing invasives and replanting natives in the autumn and winter. We hope you can join us!
