Fight Invasive Plants at Laguna Gloria
02/02/2008

Volunteers needed to help eradicate Elephant Ear invasion in the lagoon at AMOA's Laguna Gloria at the end of west 35th St. Lake Austin has been lowered through February 8th giving a great opportunity to remove these invasive alien plants that are crowding out native plants and the lagoon.  Bring a sharp shooter or spade shovel. Conditions are muddy but not too sticky as the plants are close to the shore where there is a good layer of decomposing plant material. Be prepared with rubber boots or extra
shoes, gloves, and towels.  Snacks and warm drinks will be provided.  If you are unsure about conditions, feel free to visit the grounds (access is free to the public). The area
where we will be working is at the shoreline on the edge of the amphitheatre. When facing the villa, this area is downhill on the left.

Date: February 2nd

Time: 9am-4pm (volunteers welcome for any amount of time)

Location: Laguna Gloria, 3809 West 35th Street (West Austin – 78703)
