Weed Warriors, Whychus Canyon Preserve

Description

Weed Warriors is a volunteer group that meets several times a month to remove non-native weeds like mullein, spotted knapweed, teasel, and Canada thistle from Land Trust protected lands. Invasive weeds are a major threat to functioning natural areas and pulling them by hand helps restore native plant communities.
