Description

Iceplant (Carpobrotus edulis) crowds out native plants and decreases habitat for native species. Help park rangers remove this lovely but invasive plant at the North Beach parking lot. No experience necessary. Bring your own gloves, snacks, and plenty of drinking water; instructions on how to pull iceplant will be provided.

Limited to 25 volunteers. This event ends at noon. Bring your own lunch and enjoy a lunch on the beach afterwards!
