Following a major restoration to remove invasive species and restore native habitat, the Skip Gardner Native Forest and Butterfly Garden in Babylon Village needs ongoing stewardship to keep invasive plants from returning while the native plantings become established.

Join STGSB's Babylon Creek Defender Team for a two-hour volunteer session. You'll help remove invasive plants, do light weeding, and assist with basic garden maintenance. No experience necessary — the team will show you exactly what needs to go and what should stay.

When: Saturday, August 22, 2026 · 9am-11am
Where: Skip Gardner Native Forest and Butterfly Garden, Babylon, NY
Cost: FREE
Note: No experience needed. Monthly sessions continue through October.
