Help us save the trees from being strangled by English Ivy Vines in Brandywine Park!
Many of our trees are in danger of being harmed or killed by the invasive English Ivy which is pretty to look at but deadly. The vines climb up the trees blocking out the sun, susceptible to breaking branches, serious diseases and even death. Removing these vines (you cut from the bottom of the tree) helps control the spread of invasive plants throughout the park and in surrounding neighborhoods.
During the fall and winter months, we meet every Saturday 10 a.m-12 p.m. Get on our mailing list so you know when and where to meet. Email plantladylucy@gmail.com
IMPORTANT: if you plan on volunteering, email volunteer lead Lucy first, as the location of this event changes every time. Email plantladylucy@gmail.com
You will need to wear long sleeved shifts and long pants, along with closed-toed shoes as you will be in the woods where there is poison ivy. Everything will be identified to you and no experience is necessary.
