Event Details

To celebrate the end of Richmond’s first Invasive Species Action and Awareness Month, our regular volunteer event will have expanded capacity from 10am-12pm and will be followed by a wildflower walk along the Richmond Slave Trail. You can find more information about the volunteer event HERE.

Please join us at 10am for the volunteer event, or at 12pm for the wildflower walk. The walk will be less than one mile on fairly mostly even but unpaved terrain. We will see several areas of expansive native wildflowers photographed by Newton Ancarrow as far back as the 1960s. Learn about ongoing efforts to remove invasive plants and restore this important habitat along the Slave Trail.

Directions: Use 2000 Brander St for GPS directions, but please note the following. From Maury St, continue onto Brander St and cross the train tracks. Road turns slightly right and goes under the overpass. Waste Water Treatment plant will be on your right. Continue driving until road turns slightly left and crosses another set of tracks and enters park. We will meet in the larger parking lot to the left. Look for a Richmond City vehicle.

In the event of storms, this event will be canceled. The event will go on with light rain.
