For this upcoming event, we expect to focus our efforts on planting a variety of native shrubs and perennials, and will remove invasive plants and litter as we go.  We will be planting the shrubs along the path between Arlington Street and Cottage Street. 

Meet at the intersection of Arlington Street and Nichols Ave (on the northeast corner), and we will work towards the north and east.  Across the street from 162 Arlington St, Watertown, MA 02472.
