Join the Group, Kenney’s/McCabe Beach Civic Association, and the Town of Southold for a cleanup at Great Pond in Southold. Volunteers will help remove phragmites, an invasive species also known as common reed, to help restore this critical habitat and encourage native plant regrowth.
Long sleeve shirts, long pants, and closed toe shoes are strongly recommended to protect against ticks and phragmites. Please bring your own tools, work gloves, and plenty of water.
For more information, please contact Group director of outreach Taralynn Reynolds at taralynn@thegroup.org.
This habitat restoration project is made possible by funding awarded to the Town of Southold by a Long Island Sound Futures Fund, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation grant.
