Pledge to pull garlic mustard at Pine Bend Bluffs SNA

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Friends of the Mississippi River

After a steep hike, volunteers will work closely with Friends of the Mississippi River staff to remove invasive plant species on Thursday, May 6, from 6-8 pm. We'll be focusing our efforts on hand-pulling garlic mustard in this award-winning restoration area, which is owned by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and is also part of our local National Park (the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area unit of the National Park Service).

We'll provide the tools and training. All are welcome however, capacity is limited and registration is required. The worksite is only accessible by steep and difficult terrain, volunteers should only register if they are comfortable with a challenging hike and working on a steep slope.
