Tree-savers sought for Saturday!

It's weed pull time again! Celebrate the first week of spring by getting your hands dirty with North Shore Streamkeepers.The group is looking for volunteers to help remove invasive plant species and replant native species in Lynn Canyon Park on Saturday, March 25 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Some trees in the area are being "girdled" by ivy vines that will ultimately choke off the vessels that supply oxygen throughout the tree, so cutting off those vines is just one of the priorities on the list.All ages are welcome, and attendees are invited to meet at the bottom of the hill from the trailhead of the Baden Powell, across from End of the Line (4193 Lynn Valley Rd). Bring along your garden gloves, drinking water, a reusable mug and weather-appropriate clothing; snacks, tools and good company are provided!North Shore Streamkeepers undertake all sorts of studies and activities that protect our local waterways and enhance fish populations.
