Our 1st-ever Poison Ivy Pull
Six of us pulled Poison Ivy at the Celery Farm this morning for a half-hour.
We filled three garbage bags of the nasty weed from around the Warden's Watch and also removed plenty more from the parking lot area, the first part of the trail, and under the Norman Bench.
We would like to make this annual event — the Poison Ivy at trailside is a continuing problem.
Thanks to all who helped — Gabriele, Patty, Marko, Mike, Mike and Seymour.

I had poison ivy really bad one time when I was younger. If that hadn’t happened, I probably would’ve helped!

Thank you, you brave souls. Those of us who are very sensitive to poison ivy really appreciate it!
