Join Meredith from CCAN and NoVa Tree Rescuers to canvass and remove Invasive Vines around the Loisdale Park neighborhood in Springfield, VA.
This event will be a fun mix of door-to-door canvassing and invasive vine removal. We will meet at Loisdale Park and spend the first 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.
