Weed Pull at Milltown State Park
Join the Missoula Native Plant Society for a weed pull at Milltown State Park. This is a great opportunity to see the new trails being developed - before they are open to the public - and to help out the newest state park in Montana!
BRING GLOVES AND YOUR FAVORITE WEEDING TOOL.
NATIVE PLANT SEEDS AND PLANTS WILL BE GIVEN TO VOLUNTEERS! :-)
Meet at the Milltown State Park Overlook, just off Deer Creek Rd. (map) to learn about the park and the invasive weeds that we will be helping to control along the new trails that are being developed in the park.
