Garlic Mustard Pull - Bear Creek Nature Park

  • Bear Creek Conservation Easement 740 W. Snell Rochester, MI 48306 (map)

Join Six Rivers at Bear Creek Nature Park for a garlic mustard pull! Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) and dame’s rocket (Hesperis matronalis) spread aggressively through natural areas, pushing out the native plants that wildlife need. We need your help to remove these invasive plants from our natural areas!  Pulls will be postponed or cancelled if steady rain or thunderstorms. It’s fun, easy work, and we provide tools and refreshments.  Sturdy and waterproof footwear are recommended. Call or email Ian Ableson, Stewardship Manager, at 248.601.2816 or iableson@sixriversrlc.org to sign up for this event or with questions. We will meet in the parking lot of the Paint Creek Cider Mill.
