Why This Work Matters?
Removing invasive plants is crucial in maintaining healthy ecosystems in the natural areas around us. These aggressive plant species spread quickly, crowding out native wildflowers, grasses, shrubs, and trees for resources and space. By managing invasive plants, we can help restore the native biodiversity that supports healthier ecosystems. Join ECWA in protecting and enhancing Ellerbe Creek Watershed today!
