Saguaro National Park
Non-native Plants
mighty buffelgrass pullers
2007
Saguaro National Park relies on the assistance of volunteers to combat invasives such as buffelgrass and fountaingrass
 

Throughout the year there are opportunities to help pull buffelgrass at Saguaro National Park, as well as other areas in and around Tucson. We have many opportunities for involvement, or check these sites for the potential to get involved:
Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum's Invaders
Buffelgrass Information Center

Check out the links below for more information on non-native plants in the Sonoran Desert:
