RESCHEDULED!

Grab your tube and join the Sheepscot Knotweed Project for a float down the beautiful Sheepscot River in Alna! We will enjoy the scenery while getting a fish-eye view of the problematic knotweed growing along the river bank. There will be opportunities to ask the organizers questions about managing knotweed and informational handouts to help you tackle knotweed on your property. Timing will depend on water level so please prepare to spend 1.5-2.5 hours on the river. Bring your own tube and come to learn, float, and have fun!

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the Sheepscot Knotweed Project at sheepscotknotweedproject@gmail.com.
