SUMMARY:Soil Solarization Walk & Talk at Pic-Wil Nature Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Location: Barrington\nREGISTER BY EMAILING education@blct.org. \nJoin the Barrington Land Conservation Trust for a walk and talk about Soil Solarization at Pic-Wil Nature Preserve (which is normally closed to the public)! Learn about this technique used in preparation for planting a wildflower meadow. \nSite preparation is one of the most important components to a meadow’s success. Come view a pollinator meadow experiment using the soil solarization technique on a small 10’x20’ plot. \nSoil Solarization is a very effective\, environmentally friendly method to control weed growth in preparation for planting a meadow. It is done by placing clear plastic over the soil’s surface and using the sun’s radiation to heat the soil and eliminate weeds and weed seeds. View the experiment’s first year results using this solarization technique at the Pic-Wil Nature Preserve in Barrington. \nThis special nature preserve is normally closed to the public and a tour will be available at the conclusion of the event. \nPic-Wil Preserve is flat with uneven terrain. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring bug spray. Please follow tick preparedness procedure. \nDogs are not permitted at this nature preserve. \nRain Date: None. Rain/thunderstorms may cancel the event. Updates will be shared on the Facebook & Meetup events. \nQuestions? Email education@blct.org (…or post a question in the Facebook or Meetup event!) \nMeeting Place/Directions: Pic-Wil Nature Preserve is located on Washington Road in Barrington between Tallwood Drive and Spinnaker Drive. Look for the Barrington Land Conservation Trust banner between Tallwood Drive and Spinnaker Drive on Washington Rd. \nParking for event: Tallwood Drive or Spinnaker Drive off Washington Road. \nLearn more about Barrington Land Conservation Trust HERE.

Let’s find out\, see you there! \nBe sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring bug spray and water. This event is FREE and suitable for all ages! Attendees are asked to leave their dogs at home for this walk\, as quiet is necessary for bird spotting. \nRain Date: None. Updates will be emailed to those who have registered for the event by emailing angela@charlestownlandtrust.org. \nQuestions? Email angela@charlestownlandtrust.org \nMeeting Place/Directions: Mill Pond Preserve is on Route 2 in Charlestown\, RI\, about 1/4 mile north of the junction with Route 1.
