On May 15th, 2021, the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA) conservation team joined the Spring Tree Planting event at the Billy Johnson Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve in Princeton. GPA members met at the Mountain Lake House Parking lot, 57 Mountain Ave, Princeton, NJ and then walked over to the project site as a group.
Join the Natural Resources and Stewardship Director, Anna Corichi, to plant 5,000+ herbaceous plugs in the Forest Restoration site. Native wildflowers, grasses, and ferns have been selected to provide quality habitat for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife, as well as to withstand tough site pressures, such as those posed by white-tailed deer and invasive species. The planting will also help to protect local water quality by filtering and slowing runoff before it enters Mountain Brook.
Participants (4 hours for all): Gina Shen, Kathie Wang, Lana Cheng, Pengyue Gao, Pearl Song, Xin Chen, Xiangcheng Ying, Andrew Yu, Helen Zhang, Gordon Zhang, Gina Shen, Katie Wang, Fengqi Wen, Zilun Cheng, Cici Yang, Vivien Yang, Fangyi Chen, Cynthia Jinghui Huang, Cosner Yang, Audrey Wang, and more!
