Do you want to do something easy and fun that helps preserve your local tree canopy? Then this training is perfect for YOU! \nJoin the Chesapeake Climate Action Network to learn how you can help us capture data with tree surveys this spring. We want to create the largest and most comprehensive invasive vines survey that the DMV has ever seen\, and we need boots on the ground to make it happen! \nJoin this training\, learn how to identify and log the trees you see\, and pledge to spend a few hours this winter walking around and collecting data. Once we have the data\, we can organize and send volunteers to cut these vines all year long. In this free online training\, we will go over: \n– Mapping trees using GIS \n– How to identify trees being threatened by invasive vines \n– How to capture this data using a simple electronic form \n– Where and when to survey trees \n– How we will use this data to inform program priorities

SUMMARY:Invasive Vine Removal at Browning's Grove Park
DESCRIPTION:Join Meredith from CCAN to remove Invasive Vines at Browning’s Grove Park in Riverdale\, MD. \nWe will meet at the parking lot by the playground at 9am. We will spend the first 30 minutes doing introductions and training\, then we will remove vines until about 12pm. We will focus on non-native invasive vines including porcelainberry (Ampelopsis glandulosa var. brevipedunculata) and English ivy (Hedera helix). \nPlease wear long pants\, long sleeves\, and close-toed shoes. Instructions and tools will be provided\, so just bring yourself and a good attitude! \nA reminder email will be sent out the day before with detailed instructions on where to meet. \nThis 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.
