Weed control update

With garlic mustard work on a break until Fall, we are focusing our efforts on old man's beard (Clematis vitalba). This nasty vine is getting a foothold in the Gorge, but we think that control now could prevent a total infestation. We are offering free control to landowners east of the Sandy River. Right now most of the infestations are along the Sandy River and the Historic Columbia River Highway. Our goal is to begin treatments on infested properties near the Columbia Gorge in 2010 and expand the project to include areas near the Sandy river in 2011.
