Invasive plant removal involves training volunteers on how to identify non-native and invasive plants in the area and removing those plants so that native species have a better chance on growing in along the stream buffer. This event will involve walking along uneven terrain, along with shoveling and pulling.
Parking: Street parking is available along Winmau Ln and Memory Ln.
What to Bring: To limit single-use plastic, please bring a filled reusable water bottle. Supplies such as pruners, loppers, shovels, and saws for invase removal will be provded by staff. We will also bring work gloves for each volunteer. You are welcoming to bring you own gloved if youd like.
What to Wear: We recommend wearing closed-toed shoes and long pants to this event to protect legs and feet against sharp or prickly tree branches and poison ivy.
