Volunteer Outreach: Westmoreland Park Wetlands Enhancement Work Party
Leader: Nancy Bray
Location: Westmorelands Park, East wetland on Polk St., South of the pickleball courts on W. 20th Ave, Eugene
These two work parties in Westmoreland Park wetlands this spring will be our opportunity to remove invasive meadow foxtail before it goes to seed, and we need a lot of volunteers to help! There are tasks for all ages and physical abilities. We meet on Polk St. just south of the pickleball courts. Parks & Open Space will coordinate the work parties and provides all the tools.
These wetlands to the east and west of the Dr. Edwin Coleman Jr. Center have significant native plants including two species with the largest populations anywhere in Eugene. Our wetlands enhancement project is now in its fifth year and is showing great progress in helping the native plants to flourish. We hope you can join us!
Please RSVP to this email if you can help out at one or both work parties so we can let Parks & Open Space know how many tools to bring: br****@***il.com
