About

Did you know that Harriet Wetherill Park is home to one of Plymouth's oldest sections of forest?

Despite its small size, this forest is home to a great diversity of plants, from large Oaks and Hickories to various spring ephemeral species like Bloodroot and Spring Beauties!

Invasive species like Norway Maple, Japanese Honeysuckle and Privet threaten the forest as they slowly replace these valuable native species.

We'll work to restore the forest by planting native trees in canopy gaps, removing invasives and protecting existing saplings from deer damage.

We'll also take a short walk through the forest and explore the great plant diversity here!
