Garlic mustard, an invasive species, is at its peak, and we need your help to remove it in Swede Hollow Park, on the east side of Saint Paul, nestled in between the Dayton's Bluff and Railroad Island neighborhoods. We are holding drop-in volunteer events to help us attack this pesky plant. Gloves will be available. No experience necessary--this is a great activity for anyone who loves to weed. Join us on your way home from work!
Come any time between 5 and 7 p.m., even if you can only stay for 30 minutes. Start around the Swede Henge area on the north side of the park. See this map for details.
