FREECircle Creek Volunteer Stewardship Day
Event Navigation
Impatiens glandulifera—an invasive plant better known as policeman’s helmet—is becoming a scourge in the Necanicum River watershed. Help arrest this public enemy at Circle Creek Habitat Reserve at a volunteer stewardship day on Saturday June 11, 2016, from 10:00am to 1:00pm.
Native to Asia, policeman’s helmet is named for the plant’s white, pink or purple flowers, whose shape resembles an old-fashioned British policeman’s helmet. It was first sighted in the Necanicum River watershed about 3 years ago and has since spread widely. It thrives in moist riparian areas such as the floodplain at Circle Creek, where volunteers will be working.
If you’d like to help, contact the North Coast Land Conservancy (NCLC) Stewardship Director Melissa Reich at (503) 738-9126 or email melissar@nclctrust.org for details and directions. Click here for more information
