Check out our WKTV video of the Lemery Park Invasive Species Workday conducted by the Kent Conservation District and Friends of Buck Creek on March 7.
The goal of the Workday was to control the infestation of invasive shrubs and trees along the creek to improve wildlife habitat.
Four invasive species were specifically targeted:
*Bittersweet (vine)
*Honeysuckle (bush)
*Buckthorn (shrub)
*Multiflora Rose (shrub)
The Friends of Buck Creek’s Mission is: “To protect and restore the health of the Buck Creek watershed through community education, hands-on stewardship, monitoring and local advocacy.”
