Forest Restoration Thursdays at JME
The Forest Restoration Team works year-round to remove a variety of invasive plants from the Judge Morris Estate site at White Clay Creek State Park. The work ranges from easy hand-pulling of small plants to removal of large shrubs and trees, to cutting and piling plant debris. This volunteer group has been working at this site in White Clay Creek State Park for seven years to restore the forest's biodiversity and is making remarkable progress.
There are periodic opportunities to install native species where invasive plants have been removed. This is a great way to learn more about invasive plants and the ecology of the park while helping out with a friendly group of like-minded individuals. This volunteer effort has won awards from the State of Delaware for dedication to the park and has received numerous grants to support the ongoing efforts. New volunteers are always needed and very welcome!
