Weed Wrangle at Cedar Bluffs
ORGANIZATION: The Nature Conservancy
Please visit the new page to apply.

Take a visit to Cedar Bluffs this spring for a Weed Wrangle! Assist Land Steward Peter Bauson and our partners at Monroe County-IRIS with the removal of garlic mustard and lesser celandine poppy from the property. Volunteers will be taught about invasive plants, how to identify the focus species, and how to remove them. Invasive plants outcompete our native wildflowers and reduce habitat and food sources for wildlife. Removing invasives allows forests to regenerate ecosystems that benefit native pollinators, insects, birds, and more. The terrain here is moderate to challenging, and after the work is done, Peter will guide those interested to the top of the bluff. What to expect: No experience needed, any age welcome! Come prepared to do moderate physical activity including bending. What to bring or wear: All supplies and instructions are provided, as are bottled waters and granola bars. Please come prepared with drinking water, closed-toed working shoes, and weather-appropriate layers. Sign up here: Spring Weed Wrangle at Cedar Bluffs. Note: This event is 10am EST.
