Pull garlic mustard at the Minneapolis river gorge sand flats [FULL]

Thank you for your interest, however, this event has reached capacity and registrations are no longer being accepted. Please consider joining us at a different restoration event.

---

After a brief introduction and training, we will proceed to the river gorge sand flats, known for their large sandy beaches and wonderful river-edge view. Working alongside FMR staff, volunteers will remove garlic mustard – an exotic plant invading many areas of the River Gorge out-competing native plant species. Although a serious threat, garlic mustard is not only easy to identify but quick to pull by hand. Volunteers will be pleased to see a dramatic difference in ground cover by the end of this event improving both water quality and habitat diversity.
