These vines grow rapidly either along the ground or will climb and cover other shrubs/trees, which is why we want them gone!

These plants may look harmless, but they’re causing big problems in the Weaselhead.
We’re fighting back by cutting, digging & removing them before they take over. Every plant we pull makes a difference. Want to help? Check out our volunteer programs!
