Get out your work gloves and join the Friends of Bryan Park Work Party on Saturday, September 15, from 9:00 am until 1:00 pm. Meet at Shelter 1 or drop by the work site and help FoBP meet its goal of rehabbing the garden beds and the riparian buffer on the south side of the upper pond. (This is the area below Shelter 1.)

Garden beds: We are going to border the garden beds with “city stone” so that they will be similar to those in the BetterTogether garden on the other side of the pond. We will also be weeding the beds. Work gloves are necessary. Also, you may want to bring a trowel to help tackle the tougher weeds.

Riparian Buffer: Please bring work gloves and garden clippers to help remove vines from the trees and shrubs that we planted last year. Wear long pants if you are allergic to poison ivy or you can work around it (or work in the garden beds instead!). Don’t forget that you can always rinse the ivy oil off in the pond if you are exposed.

Trash: We can always use help picking up trash from the pond edges! We suggest that you wear shoes/boots that can get muddy and have work gloives. We’ll have the trash bags.

We’ll provide light refreshments.

Please feel free to call 288-5005 if you’d like more information.
