Invasive Plant Removal Workday at Little Tennessee Greenway, Franklin, NC 3/29

MountainTrue, in partnership with the Mainspring Conservation Trust and the Friends of the Greenway (FROGs), is hosting a community volunteer workday to control non-native invasive plants and restore native habitats at the Little Tennessee Greenway in Franklin, NC.

We will primarily be pulling up roots and using hand tools to remove invasive plants like Chinese privet, Autumn Olive, Kudzu and Multiflora Rose.

No prior experience is necessary; we will provide tools and training. Please register in advance so that we will have enough tools, gloves, etc. We have large and small tasks available, so you don’t need to be able to do strenuous physical labor in order to participate. Please leave pets at home.

Please bring:

Closed-toed shoes (required)
Long pants
Long-sleeved shirts recommended
Water
Medications you may need

Let’s work together to improve the wildlife habitat and native plant heath of the Little Tennessee Greenway!

Contact western region program associate Kate Bridgers with any questions (wro-wq-habitat@mountaintrue.org).

RAIN DATE: APRIL 5th
