Walk along and through the 1.3 mile stretch of the Eightmile River at Burnham Brook to identify and hand pull small patches of Japanese stiltgrass with Audubon experts and Dave Gumbart of the Nature Conservancy.
Please note that this demonstration day requires a high level of physical activity. Participants should have strong legs and ankles, as we will be walking along, and likely through, the Eightmile River (water up to shins and knees, typically). Dress accordingly.
Please meet at Burnham Brook on Jones Hill Road, immediately east of Hopyard Road, East Haddam.
