**RESCHEDULED DUE TO WEATHER**
 
Blue Hill Heritage Trust is hosting a volunteer day on Thursday, October 2nd, from 1-4 pm at Blue Hill Mountain. 
 
Invasives are becoming an increasing problem all over the state, and Blue Hill Mountain is no exception to this issue. Recently, more and more community members are also noticing this issue. We've seen an increase in bittersweet along the trails, woods, and fields. BHHT is in the process of formulating a plan for dealing with invasives across the peninsula. But, while we work on a multi-year plan, we need your help with trimming back bittersweet. 
 
We'd love for the community to show up and show out for this volunteer session. We hope this initial effort will help BHHT assess the level of community interest and help us with our planning for a long-term remediation strategy.
 
The volunteer activity will be cutting bittersweet by hand, and working in small groups on different sections of the mountain (field, trail, etc.).
We will be meeting at the Blue Hill Mountain Hayes Trail parking lot (the big one) on top of the hill. We will try to start right on time at 1 pm. Folks are welcome to come and join us later if they can't be there at 1 pm (Look for us in the field and on the trail). Please bring plenty of water, hand clippers, loppers (or both), boots or closed-toe shoes (recommended), and work gloves. Blue Hill Heritage Trust will have extra tools for folks who need some (we have spare gloves if you don’t have any), as well as extra drinks and snacks.
 
For this day specifically, RSVP is not required, but it's highly recommended. Please, if you can, shoot me an email if you're interested in attending, so we can get a sense of participation numbers for the day.
 
Everyone and anyone is welcome to come help out.

**BHHT Volunteer Days occur twice a month throughout the spring - fall seasons. Every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month from 1-4pm (unless otherwise specified). Mark your calendars and check out postings regularly for information on up-coming dates, tasks and locations**

Blue Hill Heritage Trust is hosting a volunteer day on Thursday, October 23rd (Rescheduled Date), from 1-4 pm at Blue Hill Mountain.

Erosion is an important concern for BHHT on our trails and properties. Similar to our invasive species removal on the mountain, we'd love for the community to show up and show out for this volunteer session.  We hope this continued effort of volunteer help will help BHHT assess the level of community interest and help us with our planning for a long-term remediation strategy.

The goal for this day will be to rake leaves out of drainage ditches along the service trail on the mountain, and to dig out some sections of ditching along the field trail and further up the trail to allow them to move water off the trail properly.  

We will be meeting at the Blue Hill Mountain Hayes Trail parking lot (the big one) on top of the hill. We will try to start right on time at 1 pm.  Folks are welcome to come and join us later if they can't be there at 1 pm (Look for us in the field and on the service trail). Please bring plenty of water, a leaf rake, boots or closed-toe shoes (recommended), and work gloves. Blue Hill Heritage Trust will have extra tools for folks who need some (we have spare gloves if you don’t have any), as well as extra drinks and snacks.

Please, email if you're interested in attending, so we can get a sense of participation numbers for the day.

Everyone and anyone is welcome to come help out, and we look forward to seeing you all there.

Any questions, please email me stewardship@bluehillheritagetrust.org or call our office.

Join BHHT, IHT and speaker Jessica Sayers for our October Friends From the Field: Shoreland Zoning - Responsible Development Along Maine’s Natural Resources!

Enacted in 1971, the Mandatory Shoreland Zoning Act has been amended and strengthened over the years to better protect Maine’s lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands.  Land use activities are regulated in these shoreline areas to better protect the State’s water quality, conserve wildlife habitat, reduce erosion, and preserve the natural beauty of Maine’s shoreland areas. As coastal Maine communities experience more frequent and intense storm events, protecting our shoreline has become more important than ever.

Learn more about how mindful development under local shoreland zoning standards can help to preserve your shoreline property for many years to come.

Registration is required at: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_rbLtAxmEQVCQVK_tH5Kfnw

Jessica Sayers is the assistant shoreland zoning coordinator for the Department of Environmental Protection’s Land Bureau and is based out of the Bangor regional office. Jessica’s work brings her to the beautifully diverse regions of the State, working together with property owners, municipalities, and developers to ensure mindful development along shoreland areas.  On her weekends, she can be found hiking and enjoying the outdoors with her husband and dog.
