Invasive plant removal and plant native species at Riverside Natural Area in Hamilton

Calendar Happens On Nov 5, 2022
Time 9 am - 12 noon
Expired

Description

This will involve cutting down honeysuckle, treating the stumps with herbicide, and possibly dragging downed wood to make piles.  If we find trash, we will also try to clean this as we go.  If we get plenty of volunteers, we also plan to plant some native species around the entrance area.

What to bring:

  • If you have work gloves, loppers, or a saw please bring them. We will have materials to borrow.
  • It will be late Fall in Ohio, so the ground may be hard and dry, or it may be really muddy. Please wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.
  • We will be in an area with tall plants, so long sleeves and pants are recommended.

Parking: We will park along Joe Nuxhall Way in Joyce Park. Look for signs and vehicles parked between the Hawks RC aircraft field and River Rd.

Restrooms:
There are no restrooms nearby.

Snacks: We will have water to drink, and a jug to refill bottles.  We will also have granola bars.

Waiver:  I have attached the waiver. If you are under 18, please have a parent/guardian sign it and bring it with you. If you are over 18, or your parents will be with you, we will have copies on site.
