Haul of the Day
Volunteer Stewards show the results of a morning session during which they removed the invasive weed called Garlic Mustard from the woods near Lusitania Meadow. This fast-spreading non-native biennial can grow so densely, it chokes out other plants - and it secretes a chemical that suppresses the growth of other species.
The Stewards, under the leadership of Deb Albenberg (in this photo, wearing red) of the Cambridge water Department, meet Monday evenings from 5:30 to 7:30 pm and Thrusday mornings from 10 am to 12 noon.
