Buckthorn

Join the neighborhood effort to remove invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle!

These wicked weeds are a real ‘thorn’ in our side.

Here’s why:

  • They shade out native plants like trillium and Lady’s slipper orchids.
  • Their berries cause nutrient deficiencies for birds and wildlife.
  • Each berry carries four seeds which are easily spread to neighbors’ yards by birds.
  • They contribute to soil erosion.
