Buckthorn Removal at Birch Island Woods

Help Restore Birch Island Woods by volunteering to cut and pull buckthorn from the BIWCA.

Meet at the intersection of Birch Island Rd. and Harlan Dr. (on the south side of the BIWCA).

The City of Eden Prairie will provide tools and supplies, but feel free to bring your own pruning saws, loppers and gloves that you may want to use. A brief review on how to identify buckthorn and instructions for cutting or pulling will be provided. All participants must sign a volunteer waiver form, which will be available at the event site.
