We will be removing a patch of pesky periwinkle that is threatening the sensitive ecosystem at the Lathrop Nature Preserve. We will talk about how to identify this invasive plant, and then we will hand-pull it. Physical activity will involve walking about two kilometres over uneven terrain, bending, kneeling and crouching.

Please Note: Additional event details, including directions and parking instructions, will be provided after registration.

No previous experience is required. This event will proceed rain or shine, so please dress for the conditions: rubber boots, or shoes you don’t mind getting wet or dirty, long layers of comfortable clothing you don’t mind getting dirty, a hat and a change of dry clothes (just in case).

To allow us to plan for a safe, successful and enjoyable day in the field together, all participants must register in advance of the event. As space is limited and spots fill up fast, register today to confirm your attendance.
