Weekly Volunteer Weeding Effort

In an effort to keep up with the control of Egyptian Knapweed (Volutaria tubuliflora) and Sahara mustard (Brassica tournefortii), the natural resource staff here at ABDSP will be hosting a Weekly Volunteer Weeding Effort every Thursday, starting January 26th, and continuing through March 30th. We will be meeting at the end of DiGiorgio Rd, at 8:30am every Thursday, rain or shine!
 
All current ABDSP volunteers are encouraged to attend, and bring friends and family! We will have a one-day volunteer signup sheet for those who are not current volunteers. We will also provide bags, tools, and extra water.
 
Please be prepared to be out in the field for 3-4 hours. Some suggested items: Good hiking shoes, gloves, sun hat, sunscreen, water, snacks, and a smile.
