Join the fight against invasive plant species – attend an Invasive Weed Pull event to learn how to identify and remove invasive plant species from Lethbridge's natural areas! 

Invasive Weed Pull events help to protect the natural biodiversity of our region. We encourage our community to participate so can effectively deploy an 'Early Detection, Rapid Response' for prohibited noxious weeds in our river valley. Specifically, Invasive Weed Pull events target spotted knapweed and diffuse knapweed.

No pre-registration necessary, simply meet at the designated location on the corresponding date/time. We provide gloves, bags, and orientation so you know what to look for!

Please note, weed pull events may involve strenuous physical activity. 

Weedy Wednesdays* 

Do your part to protect our local biodiversity on the third Wednesday of every month from May to August! Visit the locations below anytime between 6-8pm to get an orientation and supplies, then help us minimize the impacts of prohibited noxious weeds.

• June 16 – Elizabeth Hall Wetlands

• July 21 – Galt Museum

• August 18 – Coulee Climb at Helen Schuler
  

Certificates are available upon request. This is especially helpful for high school students looking to get volunteer hours!

Remember – before participating, read the safety information, and follow the latest recommendations set out by public health officials regarding COVID-19. All conservation projects must adhere to the 'Organizing a Solo, Household, or Small Team Cleanup' Guidelines.
