Privet Pulling
Friday, February 10
8:30 a.m. at the Wild South office
Chinese privet is by far the most threatening non-native invasive plant species in the Sipsey Wilderness. Volunteers and staff will use weed wrenches to pull up the privet plants on a Sipsey Wilderness trail. All tools will be provided. Participants need to bring lunch, snacks, drinking water and work gloves.

Trash Clean-Up in the Bankhead NF
Saturday, February 18
8:30 a.m. at the Wild South office
Trash is an eternal problem in the forest and along the roads. On the 18th, we will target some of the most egregious dump sites in the forest. Wild South will provide buckets, trash bags and trash grabbers. Volunteers need to bring work gloves, lunch, snacks, drinking water. Pick-up trucks and/or trailers are needed! Our route will be planned so that we can have lunch in some beauty-spot.
