Meet at the gravel parking lot at the intersection of Massachusetts Ave and Little Falls Parkway at 8am. Help us save the magnificent native trees along Little Falls Stream! Join Montgomery County Parks Certified Weed Warrior Supervisors, Lynnwood Andrews and Suzanne Richman, as we manually remove the invasive vines from trees along this stream valley park.
English ivy vines cover the trees, slowly killing the trees from the base upwards. The vines also harbor a bacterial leaf scorch that affects a wide variety of native and ornamental trees. Other invasive vines completely engulf the trees, shading them out and overburdening them with added weight, causing the trees to topple. Help us save them!!
