Weed Wrangle – Vernon Township, IN
October 28, 2023 at 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Weed Wrangle at Vernon Township Community Gardens at the Vernon Township Office, 602 Vitality Drive, Fortville, IN 46040, Saturday, October 28th, 10 am – 12 pm. We will focus on the invasive pear trees in the wet area and honeysuckle behind the building. Bring gloves, wear waterproof shoes since it may be wet, and dress for the weather. Bring loppers, eye protection (if you have them, and we will bring some if you don’t), and a small hatchet if you have one. See more information about Vernon Township here https://vernontownship.us/ Our mission is to increase knowledge and awareness about the threat that invasive plant species have on our environment. Through this knowledge, we hope to motivate everyone to take action to make their home landscapes a welcoming place for plants and animals that foster a healthier world. http://www.sicim.info/weed-wrangle-indiana Registration is suggested at the Hello Hancock registration site https://betterflye.com/gardens-of-vernon-township-weed-wrangle , so we know how many to prepare for.
