Wild Cohasset WeedFest 2023 flyer with event details for removing invasive garlic mustard and helping wildlife.

Wild Cohasset needs volunteers to weed in their own neighborhoods (and on their own time) on April 22nd or anytime that week.

Wild Cohasset helps to preserve native plants… and the wild creatures that rely on them to survive. Learn more here.

Dense green groundcover with small white flowers and reddish stems.

You tell Wild Cohasset where you live. They assign you a spot to weed Garlic Mustard near you OR you can meet them at a group weeding spot in Cohasset
You weed for about an hour, discarding plants in a sealed plastic bag to prevent spreading. Every plant you pull this year prevents up to 3000 – 5000 next year.
You tell them how many bags of Garlic Mustard you’ve pulled so they can keep track.
You have done your part for Earth Day.

P.S. Teens can get community service hours! Great activity for families with even very young kids!
