Join us to free native trees and other plants from strangling and smothering non-native invasives using hand tools. No experience necessary!

The entrance to the Park is via a path at the end of the cul-de-sac of Brookeway Drive.  You can plug in 4900 Brookeway Drive, Bethesda, into your GPS.  Brookeway Drive intersects with Fort Sumner Drive.  There is parking on the street.  Walk up the path to the first bench; we will meet there.

If you are late, look for our sign and tools. Call 301-325-5301 if you can't find us.

Bring gloves or clippers or use ours. Dress protectively. Bring water to drink. Please join us for any portion of 1-3pm.
