🌲Join AVIRT’s Last Workday!
The Ashburn Village Invasives Removal Team (AVIRT) will host its final Tree of Heaven training and workday on Sunday, August 31 from 9am-11am. If you haven't joined us before, want to learn how to treat mature Trees of Heaven, or just enjoyed our other workdays, come end the summer Tree of Heaven treatment season with us!
Over the last three months, volunteers have treated or removed more than 1200 Trees of Heaven in Ashburn Village, from 40' tall mother trees down to foot tall sapplings. Our goal has been to eradicate the host plant for the Spotted Lanternfly from our HOA before the end of the summer, and we are almost there!
We have one more Tree of Heaven grove in Ashburn Village, in the woods next to the Ashburn Meadows apartment community. The location is unique because there are very few other invasives, which gives us easy access and lots of opportunities for practicing different methods on these trees. No prior knowledge or supplies required.
Please sign up HERE to help us finish this huge Tree of Heaven effort.
