Removal of Invasives at Rush Haven
September 28 @ 10:30 am - 1:00 pm
We are going back to Rush Haven to continue to push progress. We are starting a bit later to allow you to attend the Woodlands Landscaping Solutions event, if desired. Please consider joining us if you can.

Targeted species: air potato, elephant ears, Japanese climbing fern
Time: 10:30am-1:00 pm – come when you can, leave when you must.

Park on Rush Haven near 155 Rush Haven Dr or on Sandpebble Dr. and then follow the ITF signs and flags to find us in the woods about 5-6 houses down on the left side of the property.
Dress for the elements with sturdy waterproof shoes or boots, garden gloves and hat; also bring bug repellent and water. Wear your Invasives t-shirt—or if this is your first time volunteering with ITF, claim your shirt!
