Chewacla Invasive Plant Working Group Meeting
April 2 at 9am

The Chewacla Invasive Plant Working Group (ChIPWG) will hold a planning meeting on Saturday, April 2 at 9:00am at Chewacla State Park. As our active invasive plant eradication work is on hiatus while we wait out the active sap rise and consider bird nesting concerns, we will discuss strategies and priorities for the coming months, including near term opportunities for mapping, aquatic invasives work, foliar treatment of Japanese climbing fern, etc.

We will meet at the campground shelter in the middle of the second campground loop to the left off of the main entrance road. Please carpool with others attending, as parking will be limited due to an event happening at the park. After our meeting, some may take an observational stroll. Bring like-minded friends so we can build our volunteer base!

Chewacla State Park is located at 124 Shell Toomer Pkwy. in Auburn, AL.
