Please bring water and wear a hat and clothing that covers your arms, legs and feet. We will meet at 10:30 am and work until 1:00 pm at the latest.
  
We would like as large a group as possible as there is so much of this invasive plant in High Park.
  
Why we do this:
Garlic Mustard is an extremely aggressive invasive plant in woodland areas. Not only does it crowd out almost every other type of plant but is has an allopathic agent that hinders their growth. Once removed native species can be planted to restore some biodiversity. Areas where GM has been removed need to be monitored and tended for at least 5 years as there is a strong seedbank and root system left behind.
  
To assist with other small group sessions of garlic mustard removal during May, please email InvasiveSquad@highparknature.org
