Leffis Key Pepper Tree Destruction

We’re teaming up with our friends at Manatee County Natural Resources to remove invasive Brazilian pepper trees around Leffis Key Preserve.

Our crew will use to stump-cut small pepper trees and treat the stumps with . We’ll provide:

• Safety training for proper use of Milwaukee hatchets (and all required PPE)
• Instruction on identifying invasive plants
• Guidance on correct stump-treatment techniques

What to wear:
Please come prepared with closed-toe boots or sturdy shoes, long pants, and long sleeves. We’ll be moving through dense brush to reach the pepper trees.

By the end of the event, we’ll have helped protect the diverse native plant community that supports wildlife at the preserve—and you’ll gain hands-on experience in identifying and removing several invasive species.
