Invasive Tree Removal
Fresh Pond Ranger Jean Rogers uses a hand saw to cut down a large European Euonymus (Euonymus europaea) growing in the woods at the base of the Beech Path. This is one of several nonnative Euonymus species that have become invasive in North America. Even more widespread is Burning Bush, Euonymus alata, which can be found in vast numbers in many of our woodlands.
