Use your Mobile Phone to Help Us Locate Invasive Plants!

 

Invasive weeds are a significant threat to native plants and animals.  Although most non-natives are not considered "invasive", those that crowd out food sources for wild animals, create erosion, or act as a significant fire hazard can be considered a threat and need to be identified and located for removal.  You can help!

 
 
 
 
 

Using your Android mobile phone, or any phone with picture messaging, to help us locate invasive plants in any participating park!
