Volunteers will remove invasive bush honeysuckle along the St. Vincent Greenway in St. Vincent Park, by cutting the plant with handsaws or loppers, dragging, and piling debris. No experience is necessary for this activity, but it does involve physical labor and walking in the woods over varying terrain.
No experience necessary; Great Rivers Greenway staff and the Missouri Botanical Garden’s Outdoor Leadership Corps will teach volunteers how to properly identify, remove, and treat bush honeysuckle.

What to bring: All tools will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own loppers or hand pruners if you have them. Please bring a water bottle to help us reduce plastic waste. Light snacks and water will be provided.
