Please join Weed Warrior Supervisor, Adam Heifetz, at Reddy Branch Park in Olney where we will clear English ivy from mature oak, maple, and cherry trees.  We will also give breathing room to the acres of spicebush and holly by clearing multiflora rose, bush honeysuckle, and autumn olive. Please wear long pants, long sleeves, long socks, sturdy, closed-toed shoes, and gloves.  Gloves and tools are available to borrow if you don’t have your own.

We will meet a little before 9 am at the Infants and Toddlers Building immediately to the south of Rosa Parks Middle School on Olney Mill Road.  Address for Infants and Toddlers Building is 19190 Olney Mill Road, Olney, MD 20832 (google maps link).

This workday is pre-approved for MCPS SSL hours. Volunteers under 16 are not permitted to use cutting tools, so if you are under 16, please email the Weed Warrior supervisor (aheifetz74@gmail.com) ahead of time to see whether there will be meaningful work for you do to.  Volunteers 14 and under must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
