Invasive Plant Removal with Rock Creek Conservancy

​WISE is joining Rock Creek Conservancy and the National Park Service for an invasive plant removal restoration event in Rock Creek Park. Invasive plants are a major threat to our fragile forests, and stopping their spread helps allow native plants to thrive in the understory.

​FAQs

​What should I wear? Please dress appropriately for the work and weather. We recommend wearing sturdy boots or sneakers and long layers, including pants and long sleeves - this ensure safety and reduces likelihood of exposure to nuisances like poison ivy.

​What should I bring? We recommend bringing water, and snacks if desired. Tools and supplies will be provided. Please bring your own gloves if you have them.

​Can I bring my kids? Yes! Kids should be registered separately by a parent/guardian.

​How do I get there? The site is a 15-minute walk from the Van Ness-UDC metro stop (red line). If you drive, there is street parking available nearby.
