Grandma's Creek

Improve habitat, meet fellow do-gooders, get exercise, and learn about native plants and wildlife all while making a difference in the great outdoors!  To learn more about Arlington's invasive plant program, visit https://environment.arlingtonva.us/trees/invasive-plants/.  

Training will be provided, and gloves and tools are available for use. You should dress to work outdoors, and to protect yourself from poison ivy and ticks.  Volunteers are encouraged to bring your own work gloves and tools if you have them, as well as water bottles.  Some of the terrain is steep, so sturdy, nonslip footwear is important. 

These events are for volunteers ages 9 to adult (family friendly).  Volunteers under age 16 must be accompanied by an adult.  If you are 16 or 17 years old and plan to volunteer without a parent or guardian, they will either need to sign the registration form at the beginning of the event in person, or you may print and fill out the "Group Registration Youth" form under "Related Files" and have your parent or guardian sign it in advance. Make sure you bring it with you on the day of our event. 

If you or your group is seeking stormwater utility credit, please bring that form (found below) with you. 

Meet up with our group between 4th and 6th St S along S Pershing Dr., near the entrance gate to the Dominion Energy lot.  Site leader Deborah will be on the lookout for you!
