Invasive Plant Removal in Sunfish Lake Park

We’re looking for volunteers! The garlic mustard, and other invasives, have sprung up in the park, and we want to get rid of them. We’ve cleared a lot of buckthorn over the last few years, but our goal is to remove and manage as much as many of the invasive plant species in the park as we can, so we’re going to focus on garlic mustard, Canada thistle and burdock. Larissa Mottl, from Stantec, will be leading this event for us. She will help you identify the plant, and show you the best way to get it out of the ground so that it doesn’t spread. This is pretty easy work, especially compared to cutting buckthorn, so you can bring the whole family. Come out, help us clean up the park, and go home with some knowledge about this invasive so you can clean up your own property!
