SUMMARY:Invasive Plant Management Volunteer Workday: Churchill Valley Greenway
DESCRIPTION:Join ALT’s Stewardship team for a morning of invasive plant management at our beloved Churchill Valley Greenway. As we continue to restore habitat and reintroduce native plant species\, invasive plant species must be managed and removed to support a healthy ecosystem. Volunteers will assist with the removal of invasive plant species that are growing in a reforestation area. \n\nParticipants can expect to hike up to a mile on mixed terrain and navigate in tall grasses and flowers. Volunteers will use loppers\, handsaws\, shovels\, and rakes to completely remove invasive plants such as barberry\, privet\, and mile-a-minute vine. \nLong pants and closed-toed shoes are required. Long sleeves and a hat are recommended. There are no restrooms or garbage cans on site. Volunteers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Registration is required. Event day details will be sent to registrants via email. \nTICKETS

SUMMARY:Science Stroll: Foraging in Forests
DESCRIPTION:Join an ALT educator and Joey Jaros\, botanist and field biologist currently working on their PhD at Ohio State University\, for a guided hike of Barking Slopes. Participants will gain all the basics to start their own foraging journey. Over a ~1.5 mile hike\, we will identify common edible invasive plants while learning about their histories\, ecologies\, and culinary uses. Joey will also cover tips for foraging safely and ethically\, while exploring possibilities for better integrating foraging into ongoing conservation work. \nHike runs rain or shine. NO WALK-INS will be permitted. We will not be actively foraging on this walk. Foraging for mushrooms and plants can be risky and it is never safe to eat an unidentified plant or mushroom. \nJoey Jaros is a botanist and field biologist who likes to get creative in the kitchen. After completing degrees at the University of Pittsburgh and Fordham University in New York\, they are currently finishing a PhD at Ohio State\, where they research how invasive species integrate into existing biotic communities\, with a special focus on managing garlic mustard across Pennsylvania. They have been an baker since childhood\, learning to make cookies and pies with their grandma\, and have been sharing recipes with family and friends ever since. Through their work as a culinary educator at Phipps and Franklin Park Conservatory\, Joey has been on a journey to connect their commitment to sustainability with their passion for cooking\, and they are excited to share their experiences in urban foraging with you! \n  \nTICKETS

SUMMARY:Invasive Plant Management Volunteer Workday - Churchill Valley Greenway
DESCRIPTION:Identify and manage trailside invasive shrub species. Registration is required to participate in this volunteer workday.\n\nJoin ALT’s Stewardship team for a morning of invasive plant management at our beloved Churchill Valley Greenway.

Volunteers will assist with the removal of invasive plant species that are growing too closely to the trails. \nParticipants can expect to hike several miles on mixed terrain- mostly paved walking paths. Volunteers will use loppers\, handsaws\, shovels\, and puller bars to completely remove invasive shrubs such as barberry\, privet\, and honeysuckle. \nLong pants and closed-toed shoes are required. There are no restrooms or garbage cans on site. Volunteers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Event day details will be sent to registrants via email. \nTickets
