Garlic Mustard Pull at Nicholson Nature Center

  • Macomb County Public Works 21777 Dunham Road Clinton Township, Michigan, 48036 United States (map)

Join Six Rivers at the Nicholson Nature Center 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 park in the northwest corner of the Macomb County Public Works parking lot.

This event is in coordination with the Clinton River Watershed Council’s Clean Stream workdays.
