Join CCAN volunteer leaders from the Riverdale Park Green Team to remove Invasive Vines around the East Riverdale neighborhood.
This event will be a fun mix of door-to-door canvassing and invasive vine removal. We will meet at Riverside Drive Park and spend 30 minutes doing training on vine removal and canvassing. From there we will break into pairs and head to a list of pre-surveyed residences in the area to offer vine removal for residents.
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.
