Ivy Pull -- Monday, January 21, 2002, 10 a.m. - 12:00. Baker Woodlands
Sponsored together with Volunteer Emory and the Ad Hoc Committe for Environmental Stewardship. These ivy pulls have succeeded in pushing back the English ivy from most of the eastern end of Baker Woods and allowed the native vegetation to return, including some replanted native azaleas. The long term plan is to restore both the vegetation and the stream from the library down to Peavine Creek.
