Come volunteer at George Owens Nature Park! After a bit of instruction and a safety talk, we will begin clearing Bush Honeysuckle along a trail. Honeysuckle is a pervasive weed that leaf out early and drops its leaves late, causing it to out compete our native plants. Come out and help give our native plants a fighting chance against invaders! Bring your work gloves, bug spray and refillable water bottle. Tools are provided. Recommended for ages 6 years and up. Please call to sign up at (816) 325-7115.
