Washington Park ROOT: Help improve the biodiversity in our park by removing invasive thistle! Invasive thistle reduces the biodiversity of our habitat restoration areas.

Riverside Park ROOT: Thistle, thistle. We've gotten a great start, but a keystone to successful habitat restoration is keeping those nasty invasives under control. Let's keep our nice areas nice! Transplanting native seedlings if it's raining.
