Join NYC Parks Stewradship in working to remove invasive knotweed from Raoul Wallenberg Forest. In the spring volunteers worked hard to clean this area, and now they will have the opportunity to return, see the impact of their work, and continue on. Volunteers will be grubbing knotweed, a harmful invasive species. Volunteers should come dressed appropriately in clothes that can get dirty and bring their own water bottle. Volunteers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
