Join us for three upcoming invasive plant removal sessions at Blakeburn Lagoons Park on three Tuesdays: September 23, October 7, and October 21. These sessions will be hosted by the City of Port Coquitlam.
Work Party Meeting Place and Timing:
Each session will start at 9:00 am with a brief orientation and will continue until noon
We will meet at the western main entrance to the park by the washroom, display kiosk and picnic tables at the south end of Elbow Place, Port Coquitlam.
While you are welcome to stay for the entire event, even helping for a portion of the session will be appreciated. Bring along your friends!
These sessions will be conducted rain or shine, with our hope for reasonable weather.
Work Party Plan, Equipment and Clothing:
We will again focus on working in small teams to remove Himalayan Blackberry plants.
You are welcome to bring your own gloves and garden tools (such as a shovel, loppers and a rake). The City will likely also have some spare tools available.
Depending on the forecast, you may wish to bring along wet weather gear just in case of inclement weather and as the ground and surrounding vegetation may be damp.
Consider bringing along some water or other beverage and a snack if you like.
You are welcome to email me or text me at 604-839-2776, if you have any questions or would like more information.
Thanks for volunteering your time and energy to preserve natural habitats in our community.
