Habitat Restoration (cutting honeysuckle)

Get Connected Icon Happens On Jun 8, 2019
Get Connected Icon 9:30 to Noon

Description

The WWC has a number of beautiful wooded properties along the Ohio River, West of downtown Cincinnati.  One of our biggest tasks is removing invasive plants such as honeysuckle, so that native plants including wildflowers can return.  This is physical outside work, cutting honeysuckle, and putting the cut honeysuckle into large piles.  This is a perfect time of year to do this work.  It is cool enough to wear protective long sleeves and long pants.  And we get to the honeysuckle right as it starts to grow again.

We have done a number of these projects so far this Winter/Spring with great success! 

A detailed description of the actual honeysuckle removal work is attached.

This work will be at the Shady Lane Preserve in North Bend, Ohio.  The parking spot is on Shady Lane.  Across from 3005 Shady Lane, North Bend, OH 45052.
