On Saturday, September 6th, bring your friends and family to help remove invasive plant species! The Marys River Watershed Council, a member organization ofLets Pull Together Benton Country Cooperative Weed Management, is hosting an invasive plant species removal project at a stream restoration site on Beaver Creek.

The group will be removing English ivy at the site from 9 to noon on Saturday the 6th, followed by a celebration at Willamette Park from noon to 3.

Let’s Pull Together is a trademarked event of the Orchard District Neighborhood Association (ODNA) in Bend, Oregon. ODNA began the Let’s Pull Together Event in 2003, to raise awareness about knapweed.

The mission of the Benton County Cooperative Weed Management Area (CWMA) is to coordinate community-based efforts against those invasive species that have the potential to cause ecological and economic harm in Benton County.
