Fall and Winter is the season for invasive plant removal! Weed wrenches are warmed up, and we could use extra hands to tackel non-native invasives such as scotch/french broom.

What is Scotch & French Broom?
A non-native invasive to our area that has been overwhelming our parks and properties. It’s time to tackle it. One of many methods is to hand pull it out, root and all!
Why remove it?
- Displaces native vegetation/species that help promote natural ecological systems.
- Reduces biodiversity and forage.
- Alters the fundamental nature of habitats by converting it from open systems to dense shrub lands. Deer can't get to the creek if a thick wall of brush is blocking it.
