Volunteer Opportunity: Garlic Mustard Pull

Flowering garlic mustard from top view. White cluster of flowers surrounded by a green leaf floretGarlic Mustard is a non-native, invasive plant. Originally introduced from Europe, it has spread across large parts of North America, to the detriment of natural areas and their biodiversity. Garlic Mustard is very aggressive, quickly crowding out native plants and even emitting a chemical into the soil that prevents many native plants from growing. We need your help to remove it!

Join us at Tanager Tract (Near West Lorne, ON) on Friday, April 24th to help clear the Garlic Mustard from the forest and allow native plants some room to grow.

Things to note:

  • There are no washroom facilities at Tanager Tract, please plan accordingly.
  • This event involves hand pulling plants, which requires stooping or kneeling.
  • This event requires navigating muddy, uneven terrain with steep slopes and standing water.
  • We will be walking through areas where we may encounter ticks.
  • Rubber boots are required if you want dry feet.

Please note: This event is weather dependent. In the case of any changes or cancellation, we will send out an email to everyone who is registered the day before the event.
