Preservation Volunteer Opportunity to Fight Invasive Plants

On Tuesday, July 9th, 2024,  ODNR Division of Natural Areas and Preserves and Ohio Natural Areas and Preserves Association will pull European frog-bit at North Pond State Nature Preserve on Kelleys Island.  This is a plant overtaking the surface of the North Pond State Nature Preserve, crowding out more desirable natives.  Volunteers are invited to participate in this natural preservation opportunity.

The ferry ticket from Lakeside Marblehead and transportation on the island will be covered.  Volunteers can sign up using the QR code below or by emailing Isabella Buffaline, GLRI Seasonal Invasive Species Communicator:  isabella_buffalini “at” nps.gov.
