Our thanks to the three Capital One volunteers who ventured out in the woods with me today to help remove invasive Shrubby Lespedeza along Fendley Station Loop A. It turned out to be a pleasant afternoon in the park, and almost an ideal day to get some serious exercise. We pulled up at least two dozen plants, plus some Japanese Honeysuckle Vine and one cluster of Multiflora Rose, both of which are also invasive. It will be an easy task next summer to revisit that trail and pull out any missed or resprouting plants.

Thanks for letting us help out Ben. It was great to meet someone so passionate and knowledgeable. It was a wonderful day to spend outside instead of plopped down in front of a computer. Hope to work with you again soon.
