(DC) (CCAN) Join Meredith from CCAN and Katy from the Student Conservation Association to remove Invasive Vines at the historic Woodlawn Cemetery in Washington, DC. This will be a fun educational and hands-on service event.
We will meet at the entrance to the cemetery off of Benning Rd. SE at 10am. Parking is available inside the gates – do not park on the street.
We will spend the first 30 minutes doing a tour of the cemetery and learning about the history of the land from our partners at historic Woodlawn. We will then do a brief training on invasive vines and best practices for removal, and spend about 2 hours removing vines from the trees. We will focus on non-native invasive vines including porcelainberry (Ampelopsis glandulosa var. brevipedunculata) and English ivy (Hedera helix).
