Invasive Species Removal at RFK Meadows

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: National Park Service

The National Capital Region Invasive Plant Management Team is hosting a non-native plant removal event on October 6th. This event is a volunteer effort to help restore the meadows from non-native invasive species through the hands-on removal of harmful shrubs, vines, and flowering plants.


During the event, participants will learn how to identify and control several non-native plants that are threatening our natural communities. This event will provide more habitat for native plants and animals to thrive.


Meet at the Anacostia River Trail by the entrance of Kingman and Heritage Islands: https://goo.gl/maps/FEqc8fxo89sTAJnT9 . All supplies and instruction will be provided. Those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
