Weed Native Plant Gardens and Preserves

Above is a photo of some of NSAS members who removed non-native plants and
then planted natives at Planting Fields Arboretum Bird Garden. Below is a photo taken
in Spring 2015, one year later. To the right is bee balm planted by some of the same
members in Spring 2016 at Bailey Arboretum native plant garden.

 

These gardens and several others need removal of invasive non-natives.
To volunteer about twice a year email NSAS . Other places include Garvies Point and Science Museum of LI where NSAS has also created native plant gardens. Further below find photos of Schreiber HS Tree Hugger club members who planted and then weeded the native plant garden in the south courtyard. Another photo is of Port Washington  Community members who helped NSAS install native trees and shrubs at Guggenheim Elementary School to create a more bird-friendly habitat.
