Sunset Brooks needs your help to continue hosting, feeding, and protecting organisms that are essential to the local ecosystem. One shrub in particular offers birds – like Eastern Bluebirds – a meal of fruit as well as dozens of species of tasty, nutritious larval and mature insects. A peculiar member of the gooseberry family, wild black currant’s stems are gray and winged with brown woody ridges. Come out to make more room for wild black currant shrubs by removing invasive plants. Meet at the park entrance on Sunset Rd., at the end of Brooks St. Workday sites have unpaved trails and require going off-trail.

Preregister through VolunteerHub so NAP can plan on enough staff and supplies for a safe and successful event. For your safety, wear long pants, tall socks, and closed-toe shoes. All minors should be accompanied by a guardian. More information: How to prepare for a NAP workday (PDF).
