Want to have fun and help improve water quality at the same time? Grab a friend and join the Blackstone River Watershed Council/Friends of the Blackstone in removing the aquatic invasive water chestnut plant from the Valley Falls Marsh.
Canoes, PFDs, and gloves will be provided, or feel free to bring your own. This event will take place on June 25 and June 26 from 9am - 4pm on both days. Volunteers are invited to come for the entire duration or just a few hours!
Parking will be at 30 Meeting Street, Cumberland, RI 02864.
