Join Meredith from CCAN to remove Invasive Vines along Sligo Creek in Chillum, MD.
We will meet at the entrance to the cemetery off of Bladensburg Rd. at 9am. Parking is available in the small lot outside of the entrance.
We will spend the first 30 minutes doing a brief training on invasive vines and best practices for removal, and spend about 2 hours removing vines from the trees. We will focus on non-native invasive vines including porcelainberry (Ampelopsis glandulosa var. brevipedunculata) and English ivy (Hedera helix).
Please wear long pants, long sleeves, and close-toed shoes. Instructions and tools will be provided, so just bring yourself and a good attitude!
A reminder email will be sent out the day before with detailed instructions on where to meet.
This project is sponsored through a partnership between CCAN and Casey Trees and is funded in part by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service. USDA is an equal opportunity provider, employer, and lender.
