    Description

    Hack Some Honeysuckle with Great Rivers Greenway!

    Volunteers are needed to help Great Rivers Greenway and the City of St. Charles remove invasive bush honeysuckle on Saturday, April 25th from 9AM to 11AM at Fox Hill Park.

    Volunteers will remove invasive bush honeysuckle along the Boschert Greenway at Fox Hill Park in the city of St. Charles, by cutting the plant with handsaws or loppers, dragging, and piling debris to be chipped. No experience is necessary for this activity, but it does involve physical labor and walking in the woods over varying terrain.

    No experience necessary; Great Rivers Greenway staff will teach volunteers how to identify, remove, and treat bush honeysuckle.

    What to wear: Long pants and closed toe shoes are required. Eye protection and gloves will be provided.

    What to bring: All tools will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own loppers or hand pruners if you have them. Please bring a water bottle to help us reduce plastic waste. Light snacks and water will be provided.

    Note: This event is limited to ages 13 and older.
