Hey everyone! *THE DATE HAS CHANGED DUE TO FORECAST*

On Friday, April 27th, EnviroCo and EcoReps are sponsoring an Invasive Species Pull in the Arboretum. We're going to help pull and cut invasive species that are choking out native trees and other plants, as well as cleaning up the walking/runnning trails!

This event was not listed on the original Earth Week schedule, but you can sign up here:
