Join us as we focus on removing invasive and exotic plants that threaten native wildflowers and wildlife habitats. \nOur Main Target: Euonymus fortunei\, also known as Winter Creeper. This commonly used ground cover has been overtaking the Valley\, encroaching on both our Meadow Restoration Project and the surrounding Blue Hole #3. Throughout the week\, we’ll work together to protect and enhance these vital habitats by removing Winter Creeper. \nCheck out the calendar above or the schedule below for a full list of activities throughout the week![/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”8105″ img_size=”” alignment=”center”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Why It Matters” tab_id=”1741300003690-6dfd1e6d-f20b”][vc_column_text css=””]Removing invasive plants like Winter Creeper is essential for restoring the balance of our local ecosystems. These aggressive plants crowd out native species\, competing for vital resources like sunlight\, water\, and nutrients\, which leads to a loss in biodiversity. By clearing out invasive species\, we’re giving native plants the space they need to thrive\, creating a healthier environment for local wildlife. This work also boosts the overall health of the ecosystem – improving soil quality\, supporting pollinators\, and preserving the natural beauty and function of the landscape for years to come.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Who Can Join the Fun” tab_id=”1596647812985-1634d36d-75db”][vc_column_text]Everyone aged 10 and up can volunteer!
