Weeding for Wildlife: Saving Monarch Butterflies
Sunday, July 20th, 2025
We need volunteers to help spend a couple of hours weeding in beautiful conservation land in Cohasset.
Our target: Black swallow wort, an aggressive invasive plant that is killing monarch butterflies
& poses a major threat to biodiversity.
- Meet 9:45 am in the parking lot at Holly Hill Farm, 236 Jerusalem Rd Cohasset. Carpooling is recommended as parking is limited.
- At 10 am, we'll hike to the spot (approximately 10 minutes away through fields and over uneven ground).
- Sleeves, pants and gloves are recommended!
- If possible, please bring garden clippers and/or a dandelion weeder or sharp trowel. (we will have extras on hand)
- No experience necessary: we'll show you what to do!
