[ARCHIVED] Carrboro seeks volunteers to remove invasive plants

Invasive Species Event - Social Media Post

Join us as a volunteer at the Town of Carrboro Invasive Plant Removal event! This is scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon Sunday, July 24, at Wilson Park, 101 Williams St., Carrboro, NC 27510. 

We will fight invasive plants, save trees and native plant communities, and restore habitat. The spread of non-native and invasive plants is a threat to native plants and wildlife. The removal of these species will improve forest resilience and biodiversity and encourage the success of native species as outlined within the Town’s Community Climate Action Plan https://www.carrboronc.gov/928/Community-Climate-Action-Plan 

Invasive Plant Removal Event Details:

  • Work will involve moderate exertion including cutting, pulling vines/roots.
  • Please wear long sleeves, long pants, and close-toed shoes.
  • Bring water and apply sunscreen/insect repellant as needed.
  • Water, tools, gloves, and protective eye gear will be provided, but please bring your own if possible.

Contact Town of Carrboro Sustainability Coordinator Laura Janway to sign-up as a volunteer!
