Chalet Invasive Removal

Two people clearing vegetation, one with a chainsaw, near a trailer in a forested area.

Dalem's Chalet Work Day

In cooperation with the Windham and Windsor Housing Trust, we held a work day at the Dalem's Chalet in West Brattleboro. With the help of CISMA committee members, local volunteers, and housing trust employees we learned how to identify and remove invasive plants, and about native alternatives. 

A group of people gathered outdoors, possibly for an event or meeting, with greenery and cars in the background.
