A variety of non-native, invasive plant species are present in our parks and stream valleys. By their nature, these plants can take over an area quickly and threaten our native plant communities and the wildlife that depends on them. Join our KTown Weed Warriors in the Kensington Stream Valley Park along Silver Creek to learn how you can help control non-native, invasive plants and preserve the health of our parks, streams and trails!

Events may be for untrained volunteers, students, or for certified weed warriors only. Please contact Katherine Wood at woodyoule@gmail.com ahead of an event for details on registration, SSL hour availability, and any equipment requirements.
