Site Name: Colossal Cave Mountain Park - invasive grass removal
Pull Date and Time: December 16, 2026 at 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Description: Join us for a morning of removing invasive grasses at Colossal Cave Mountain Park. From our meeting location, we'll consolidate into as few vehicles as possible and then we'll drive within the park to a spot closer to our work area. We'll take a short hike to our work area where we'll primarily be digging up invasive African lovegrass. We'll also spend some time spreading seedballs with native seed. Volunteers should be comfortable with physically strenuous outdoor work. We'll return to our meeting spot by 12pm and enjoy some snacks and drinks together.
Meeting Location: We will meet at the main parking lot of Colossal Cave Mountain Park near where the cave tours take place. When you enter the park on Colossal Cave Rd, continue straight and follow the road up to the paved parking lot.
