Activities

Lots of growth everywhere in West Twin Ponds! There are some very big and delicious salmonberries—red, orange and golden. Thimbleberries not quite ripe at the end of June but should be ready to eat in July. It is okay to pick and eat in between pulling out invasive plants! The weather that has brought us berries has also encouraged herb Robert and the dreaded bindweed. Baby blackberries are also emerging. So join us in combating invasive plants and get a taste of our suburban forest!
