You'll get a brief training on identifying target invasive plants and control methods (manual and herbicide application). Then we'll walk to a section of the Greenway near the wetland forest and remove three invasive species to restore native wetland habitat.

Josh Kelly, Public Lands Biologist for MountainTrue will give an informational presentation on the emerald ash borer beetle. The presentation will include information on the ecology and abundance of ash in the region, what landowners can do to save treasured trees, and the efforts of MountainTrue and the Pisgah Conservancy to "Save Pisgah's Ashes".

Join us and help restore native plant communities by controlling non-native invasive plants at Richmond Hill Park. This is the City of Asheville’s only forested park and is home to many special native plant and animal species! Volunteers help to stop the spread of harmful non-native invasive species and return native species to the unique park.
