Date: May 8, 2024

Time: 9:30 - 11:30 am

Location: Across from 158 Namequoit Rd, overlooking Paw Wah Pond

Join us for a morning of removing invasive phragmites at Namequoit Bog, an old cranberry bog and Atlantic White Cedar swamp. Access is directly across from Paw Wah Pond; volunteers will enter the bog through shallow trenches until they reach the work area. We will then cut the phragmites’ seed heads and bag them to remove off-site. 

Volunteers will need waders or tall waterproof boots. Please also bring water and work gloves. Parking can be found at the end of Namequoit Road and in the Paw Wah Conservation Area parking lot further down the road. 

Please contact Tom to sign up and for any questions you may have:  tom@orleansconservationtrust.org
