Keep it clean
With your help we prvented a lot of new garlic mustard seed from forming and spreading to new areas. As hard as we tried, there are garlic mustard plants going to seed in some areas. You can help by teaching your friends, neighbors, and everyone you meet to clean their shoes, clothing, gear, bikes, pets, and off road vehicles to avoid unknowingly spreading seeds. Enter public trails with clean shoes and clothing. Be aware of the potential for pets and livestock to collect and carry weed seeds in fur and hooves. Simply brushing animals, boots and clothing before leaving sites will help prevent the spread of noxious invasive weeds to other areas of Oregon. This year's slogan for Oregon's Invasive Weed Awareness campaign says it all: Spread the word, not the weed.
