Crosby Farm Park is a natural oasis in the heart of the city, nestled at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers. Join Friends of the Mississippi River staff on Thursday, April 26th, where volunteers will be working in an area home to a striking array of spring wildflowers native to Minnesota.
After a brief introduction and training, volunteers begin removing the extremely invasive plant, garlic mustard, then pledge to return to the area to continue this much-needed work. Please note that we ask all registrants at this particular event to sign a Pledge to Pull, promising to return and continue to remove garlic mustard at Crosby Farm Park in the weeks following this evening pull.
Identification and training will be provided. All are welcome, however, space is limited and registration is required. To learn more and register, visit https://fmr.org/events/2018/04/26/pledge-pull-garlic-mustard-crosby-farm-park
