Invasive Plant Species Removals

What we're doing: To provide the opportunity for native species to flourish, we remove invasive plant species from Mount Tolmie every Sunday alongside the Pulling Together Saanich Program. We target plants such as English Ivy, Scotch Broom, Spurge-laurel, Himalayan Blackberry, and Periwinkle. You can come join us between 1:30-3:00 PM on Sundays through the Pulling Together Saanich Program.

Impact: Huge piles of invasive species are removed every week. While Mount Tolmie requires regular removals to keep the invasive species at bay, we see wildflowers spring up in cleared areas and trees are freed from choking ivy embraces.
