Yellow Creek State Park

Thu, September 11, 2025, 5:15 – 7:15 pm

Description

We will pull by hand the invasive ground cover, periwinkle (Vinca major), along Laurel Run Trail near the Yellow Creek State Park Office. Park at the office parking lot. This area is often wet and muddy, which will make it easier to pull out the long rooted stems without breaking them.

Wear hiking boots, long pants, and insect repellent. We will provide gloves, but if you have a favorite pair of garden gloves, bring them. Or you can work without gloves.

Feel free to arrive late, if you cannot get to Yellow Creek by 5:15 after work. Just walk along Laurel Run Trail until you find us.
