"Pulling Together" is a community plan to teach invasive plant management and other restoration strategies in the town of Weston.
Pulling Together members Lisa Brodlie (left), Sarah Hutchison, and Mike Aikenhead discussed the volunteer group's work. The group educates neighbors and shows them how to respect existing wetlands, identify and remove invasive plants, and encourage the use of native plants to decrease soil erosion, improve wildlife habitat, and protect water quality.
Pulling Together partners with Lachat Farm and Weston Public Schools to host invasive removal workshops. In five years, they have accomplished 1,200+ hours of invasive removal work on town property.
