SUMMARY:Invasive Hardy Kiwi Plant Removal
DESCRIPTION:Join Berkshire Environmental Action Team (BEAT) at Pittsfield’s Burbank Park to help remove Hardy Kiwi (Actinidia arguta)\, a rapidly spreading invasive vine that threatens our native ecosystems. \nOriginally introduced as an ornamental plant\, hardy kiwi has become a serious problem across parts of the Northeast\, including Berkshire County\, \n \nMA. Once established\, this fast-growing vine forms dense mats several feet deep on the forest floor and climbs high into the canopy\, creating thick “curtains” that smother native plants\, shrubs\, and even mature trees. These areas—sometimes called “amphitheaters”—become barren monocultures that threaten biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. \nWhat to Expect:\nOn this workday\, we’ll focus on cutting and pulling hardy kiwi vines—particularly removing any fruit before it can be eaten by wildlife and spread further. This is a great opportunity to get outdoors\, get active\, and connect with others who care about protecting our local environment. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. \nWho Can Participate:\nEveryone is welcome\, regardless of age or experience! Volunteers should be able to walk on uneven ground for about 10 minutes to reach the work site. \nWhy It Matters:\nYour efforts will directly support native wildlife habitat and help preserve the health and diversity of our local forests. \nCome Prepared:\nWe recommend wearing long pants and long socks\, along with closed-toed shoes. Please bring a full bottle of water. Pulling vines isn’t easy work; we want everyone to stay safe and hydrated! If you have your own work gloves\, loppers\, or pruning shears\, please bring those along. Otherwise\, you can borrow some from BEAT. \nDATE: Saturday\, August 8\nTIME: 9:00 AM to Noon\nLOCATION: Burbank Park\, 309 Lakeway Drive\, Pittsfield\, MA — We will meet at the Onota Lake Boat Launch parking lot\, NOT the main parking area for Burbank Park.\nREGISTER HERE \n***Extreme or wet weather cancels this event.*** \nEmail team@thebeatnews.org with any questions.

SUMMARY:Calling all Chestnut Fans!
DESCRIPTION:Join the MA/RI Chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation\, with support from the Monterey Native Plants Group\, to help plant an amazing chestnut seedling orchard! \nYou are invited to help plant an orchard of 100 specially selected chestnut seedlings that have been hybridized for resistance to the blight that wiped out this keystone species in the early part of the last century. \nGould Farm has been chosen for this large planting (100+ seedlings) as another step toward restoring the iconic  American Chestnut to our woodlands. This effort has been ongoing for over 40 years by the American Chestnut Foundation (TACF)\, a national organization with chapters throughout the historic range of the American Chestnut from Maine to Georgia. \nThe MA/RI chapter\, which has worked closely with the Monterey Native Plants Group on a number of programs\, including several annual chestnut talks and nut and seedling distributions\, has breeding orchards throughout the state. Last year the MA/RI chapter cross-pollinated the most promising and robust trees in its orchards. It was a labor-intensive effort to take the pollen from the best tree in one orchard and pollinate the best tree in a different orchard. The effort was a success in producing a number of viable nuts. The nuts produced from that effort have been sprouted\, potted up and the young seedlings will be ready to plant later this month\, on a property near the parking lot of Diane’s Trail on Curtis Road. \nThe efforts at the state chapter level are accomplished wholly by volunteers. All are invited and welcome to be part of this major restoration effort. All help is greatly appreciated. \nFor more information\, contact John at johnkingfisher54@gmail.com. \nDATE: Saturday\, May 30 (rain date Sunday\, May 31)\nTIME: 9:00am – 4:00pm\nLOCATION: Parking lot for Diane’s Trail\, Gould Farm\, Monterey\, MA.
