The litter clean up daysestablished by the Network of Open Space Friends and supported by the Town of Plymouth has become a tradition. The unsightly litter that accumulates over the course of 6 months along almost every roadside is a sad testament to human carelessness and the participatory clean up effort by a wide range of citizens is truly inspiring. Today we send special thanks to a neighbor who spent time on November 5 cleaning up the trash that had accumulated along our Bartlett Road frontage. We would also like to thank several neighbors who pulled almost 1000 Buddleja bushes from the South West corner of the property where they had found a dandy spot to germinate en mass. An imported european species, this infestation looked out of place. You can find images for Buddleja at Salicicola.com a website developed by Irina Kadis and Alexey Zinovejev, botanists who are developing a species list for Tidmarsh Farms.
