Water Chestnut Pull at Massapequa Preserve
June 8 @ 9:30 am – 12:30 pm
New York Invasive Species Awareness Week (NYISAW) partners across the state are joining forces to raise awareness and inspire action.
Get ready to roll up your sleeves! The Long Island Invasive Management Area (LIISMA) is teaming up with NYSDEC for a Water Chestnut Pull at Massapequa Preserve, and we want YOU out on the water with us!
We’ll be hand‑pulling water chestnut to help protect our freshwater ecosystems, support native species, and keep these waterways healthy. It’s hands‑on, it’s impactful, and it’s a great way to spend a June morning making a real difference.
Join us, bring a friend, and be part of the crew taking action for Long Island’s natural spaces.
9:00 am – 12:30 pm at Massapequa Lake – Merrick Rd, Massapequa, NY 11758
