Weed Pull: Donner Memorial State Park

August 12, 2017 @ 8:30 am - 11:00 am

Join the TRWC Weed Warriors for an event to remove noxious weeds from our watershed.

Bull thistle has taken hold in Donner Memorial State Park. This species outcompetes our native species for water, light, and nutrients and reduces the recreational value of the park. The TRWC and State Parks have teamed up to take this species out!

Park entry is included with event participation. So join the Weed Warriors in battle and enjoy the fruits of your labor at the park afterwards.

Snacks provided. Bring gloves, hat, sunscreen, and water. Meet at the parking lot in front of the Emigrant Trail Museum.

Call Matt Freitas at (530)550-8760 x6# to RSVP or if you have any questions.
