2023 Events

MycoLab 2023 On Site Events at the Pine Street Barge Canal                   *Does not include MycoEvolve programs
 Community Science
Sundays 2 - 4PM: April 30, May 21*, June 25, July 9, July 30**, Aug 20*, Sept 10*, Oct 15
We will continue to gather ecological inventory on two adjacent Superfund Site parcels that are pooled into this Inaturalist project and then listed separately below: 1. back public 11 acres between the canal and the land (small strip we have not yet inventoried is on the west side of the canal!) which last year we began inventorying 2. an adjacent 3.57 acre Supefund site (#501)  which originally hosted the Coal gasification plant. We hope this parcel will be donated to the City, conserved, & slated for true remediation and restoration. So for now we gather baseline data! Thanks to the St. Michael's College Class who created the map for #501 in their recent GIS class!
**Youth Games, bring your children! As long as the shoes worn are kept outside for a few days and all skin is covered, they should be safe!
* On site Ecological Restoration workshop starting at 10 am to offer training to folx and opportunities to practice skills while helping the land!
Restoration Workshops
Sundays 10AM - 2PM:   May 21, Aug 20, Sept 10
Learn how to identify glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus)and common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica), how to remove them mechanically with no chemicals, and about our larger restoration plan for this crucial buffer between the land and canal.

Abenaki Panel
​
July 30. 2023 4:15-5:30 at the Pine Street Barge Canal

Come listen to Abenaki elders about their childhood memories and ancestral knowledge about this area, so sacred to their people who lived here for thousands of years before colonial devastation occurred. Bring an open heart, reverence, questions, spaciousness to learn, community gifts of tobacco, cedar, dried medicinal and edible herbs, checks for: Alnobaiwi, the four tribes, and Abenaki Artist Association. (We are able to offer financial gifts to the panelists through a NEGEF GROW grant we received recently).

Coming Prepared & Staying Safe
Wear long sleeved pants and shirts and water resistant, sturdy foot wear. There are ticks and poison ivy at this site. Bring any water, snacks, and eco friendly sun & insect protection you may need.
Because the sites we are working in are Superfund sites, wear footwear you can leave outside for 2 days on your porch. Note: the toxins are below the soil surface but in case any particulates enter the tread of your shoes, this is an extra precaution we encourage all site visitors to take.
Address: 453 Pine St, across from Dealer.com
