Invasive Plant Removal * NEW DATE!!

Due to increment weather, this event has been moved to September 19!

Help treat and remove a variety of invasive plant species at Cartier Park. In August we pulled several Bush Honeysuckle shrubs. We’ll continue removing this shrub that replaces native plants. Even though it does provide some nectar and berries to insects and birds the leaves are not palatable to most native insects. A discussion to help identify these shrubs will take place before we start.

Meet at the parking area by the gazebo by Lincoln Lake at the end of Rath Ave.  Bring water,  gloves and wear long pants and closed toed shoes. Event will be held in fair weather, and sometimes wraps up early, depending on site conditions.
