Thank you to all the volunteers who came to save over 100 trees from invasive English Ivy attack on December 9, 2023 ! With such a successful result, we decided to do it again.

This event is co-sponsored by Save Our Trees (https://saveourtreestogether.org/), Anne Arundel Weed Resistance (https://www.anne-arundel-weed-resistance.org/) and Cape Conservation Corps.

All are welcome from novices to experts. Newcomers will be taught to identify and remove invasive vines from trees.  Bring gardening gloves, water, sturdy boots or shoes, and appropriate clothing (watch the weather forecast). Tools will be provided or you can bring your own.

The process involves cutting the flow of nutrients from the ground, as shown in the top picture.  This way, all vegetative growth, seen in the picture at left, will die off on its own.  This will not only allow the tree to regain its health, but also prevent the ivy from making more seed (and more babies!)
