Bald Mountain Recreation Area - April 11, Volunteer Stewardship Workday

Help us remove garlic mustard that threatens to take over this valuable woodland. Garlic mustard removal is an easy project, but we will be covering a lot of ground, so come prepared for a hike.



Please dress for outdoor work, wearing long pants, long-sleeve shirt, work boots, and sun protection. Bring layers to dress for the weather. Bring water, a snack, and any medication you might need. To prevent the spread of invasive species, ensure all gear is free of mud and seeds. Work gloves, eye protection, and hand tools are provided.



Volunteer stewardship workdays with the DNR engage volunteers through hands-on restoration and education as they help remove invasive plants threatening high-quality ecosystems in state parks across southern lower Michigan. Volunteers learn plant identification, see rare ecosystems, connect with others and more. No experience is necessary and equipment and instruction are provided.

Register by emailing natural resource steward Anna Cone at [email protected].

Please note:  A Recreation Passport is required for vehicle entry into Michigan state parks.

Workday cancellations: If a workday is canceled due to inclement weather or any other reason, registered participants will receive an email notice at least two hours before the scheduled meeting time. Please check your email before departing.
