Public Welcome Program/Speaker Presentation

Get out and give back at our 2022 Earth Day of Action at Climbers Run Nature Preserve! About this event The bad news: Invasive plants take over ecosystems, out-compete native vegetation, and cause reductions in biodiversity. The good news: we can fix this problem by removing invasive plants! What better way to give back this Earth Day than to help support the amazing biodiversity found at Climbers Run Nature Center. We will use pruners to clip out invasive multiflora rose plants from the Climbers Run floodplain. This work is not physically demanding but does involve plants with thorns as you might guess from its name (multiflora ROSE). Where to meet: The barn at Climbers Run Nature Center What to expect: This event is for ages 8 and up. Work at your own pace removing muliflora rose and other invasives. A bathroom is available on site. This event will happen rain or shine. Cancellation for severe weather will happen at the time of the event. What to bring: Dress for the weather and bring work gloves if you have them. We will have gloves available if you need them. Regiration required.
