Josephine Newman Invasive Species Removal Project

Join Maine Audubon’s Land Steward for a few hours filled with invasive species removal! Together we’ll work towards creating a more balanced ecosystem at Josephine Newman Audubon Sanctuary in Georgetown. Volunteers will serve alongside Maine Audubon staff to manually remove Asiatic Bittersweet and Multiflora rose that continue to crowd out native plant and tree species.

Volunteers can expect to hike approximately ¼ mile to the project site. Volunteers will be using a variety of hand tools that include loppers, hand saws, and weed wrenches for root removal.
