Celebrate Earth Week with us! Join us as we focus on removing invasive and exotic plants that threaten native wildflowers and wildlife habitats.
Our 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.
Check out the calendar above or the schedule below for a full list of activities throughout the week!
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.
Everyone aged 10 and up can volunteer! Children 15 and younger must be accompanied by an adult.
