​What is a invasive plant smackdown?  The smackdown is a family-friendly event to control invasive plants.  We will be targeting chokecherry (Prunus padus), an invader which degrades moose and salmon habitat.  By removing these invaders, we will allow native plants and healthy habitats to come back.

Volunteers will work with leaders who are members of the Anchorage Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area.  We will supply all tools required, but if you have work gloves you can bring, please do.  The smackdown will be fun, with prizes, and free lunch!


How do I get involved?  To volunteer, please click the Register button below.  You can form a team or join a team at the event.  The work is best suited for older children and adults, but younger children are welcome to come and observe.
