- **Event Name**: Invasive Species Removal at Haw Ridge – Saturday, January 31
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 31 Jan, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Join us for a volunteer workday focused on removing invasive plant species—such as English ivy and privet—to help native wildflowers thrive at Haw Ridge. Environmental education instructor and author Kris Light, creator of the Haw Ridge Wildflower Guide (available for download at https://www.easttennesseewildflowers.com/), will join us to help identify wildflower habitats found at Haw Ridge and explain how invasive species threaten these native plants. 

The event is co-organized between TCWP and the UT Arboretum Society. Participants may choose activities that match their comfort level, from simply enjoying time outdoors to digging vines or removing privet using W**d wrenches.

We will meet at 10:00 am in the parking area on Edgemoor Rd. (near the Haw Ridge kiosk) and walk into the area of the peninsula on the west side of the park. The area is rocky in a few sections and could be muddy if there were recent rains, so sturdy shoes are necessary. We will have some tools for participants to use, but you are encouraged to bring your own clippers, loppers, and work gloves.
