• White Mulberry Removal at the A/B/C Lakes

  • (REGISTRATION FORM BELOW)

    Sunday, March 23rd, from 10AM-1PM, the Ashburn Village Invasives Removal Team (AVIRT) will be conducting their second invasive plant removal event at Alder, Beech, and Cedar Lakes, and we need you!

    Unfortunately, these three beautiful lakes, which feature native pollinator gardens along their pathways, are ringed by invasive white mulberry trees.

    These white mulberry trees outcompete native mulberries and hybridize with them, threatening our native version with extinction. White mulberries spread through pollen and fruit eaten by birds, with a single tree capable of producing millions of seeds.

    Recently, landscaping crews cut nearly 100 white mulberry trees at ABC Lakes down to 12" tall, but without further intervention, they will resprout from these stumps. We have a rare opportunity to finish the job and keep them from coming back.

    Come out and meet some new friends, enjoy the weather, and make a difference in our community. The event will be capped at 30 volunteers, so sign up today!

    If you have any questions, please contact nabertj@gmail.com.
