COMMUNITY: Spotted Knapweed Removal at Whitefish Point Bird Observatory
July 28, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 4:00 pm
Join Michigan Audubon Conservation Manager Chad Machinski and Three Shores CISMA (Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area) for a volunteer event removing spotted knapweed at Whitefish Point Bird Observatory on July 28.
Spotted knapweed pulling will begin at 10:30 a.m. and continue until approximately 4 p.m. Stop by to lend a hand within that time frame and look for crew members wearing Three Shores CISMA shirts or the teardrop banner when you arrive. Garbage bags and extra work gloves will be available to volunteers.
Spotted knapweed is an invasive plant species that can reduce biodiversity by choking out native vegetation and is present among the dunes at Whitefish Point. If you have questions, please contact Three Shores CISMA at 906-639-7139 or threeshorescisma@gmail.com.
