    Description

    Hillcrest Weeding Party

    Community Weeding Party!

    The sedges and elderberries along the paved path at Hillcrest Park are looking lovely! Now's the perfect time to yank those pesky radishes out so the natives can really thrive.

    So we’ve scheduled a community weeding party for Saturday, February 28th, from 9 to 11am. With the ground so soft and moist, the weeding is easy, even for elementary-aged children. Bring your favorite weeding tool if you like—but a quick grab-and-yank is often all that’s needed.

    Directions
