Weed Awareness Walk

  • Friends of Palisades Indian Canyon Drive Spokane, WA, 99224 United States (map)

Come learn all about weeds at Palisades Park on Saturday morning with The Lands Council, Friends of Palisades, and members from Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge. Our event will be running from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, with coffee and donuts offered starting at 8:30 am. The morning will begin with a brief orientation from Private Lands Biologist Brian Walker, introducing the invasives and their impact on Spokane County. Following that, we’ll walk about three quarters of a mile to a patch of Dalmation Toadflax. Along the way, we’ll identify different invasives we see along Rimrock Drive that can be pulled by everyday recreators.

Please bring gardening gloves, if you have them. We also recommend wearing long pants and socks out of precaution for allergic reactions and to minimize contact with ticks. The site we will be going to is by a creek, so bug repellant will also be useful, and proper sun protection (sunhat, sunscreen, and sunglasses)
