Buckthorn Removal

  • 14th Ave S & Minnehaha Parkway East Minneapolis, MN, 55417 United States (map)

Join us this summer to remove invasive buckthorn along Minnehaha Creek! We'll provide training and hand tools to control buckthorn using the high cut method, so no power tools or chemicals are involved. Sign up to help here!

Volunteers meet at the 14th Ave bridge over the creek. This is a great volunteer opportunity for beginners, teens, etc. Find and sign Minneapolis Parks' waiver here!

If you prefer to bring your own tools (loppers, hand saws, and pruners are permitted; NO power tools or chemicals), please mark them with your name. Other items you may want to bring include gloves, safety glasses, water bottle, and bug spray. 

Huge thanks to FRNNG Board Member Colleen Stockmann and neighbor Kyle Nelson for leading this project!  Learn more about the project here.
