Ellsworth Springs Park Ivy Pull

  • Ellsworth Springs East 1200 SE 98th Ave, Vancouver, WA 98664, USA (map)

Join the City of Vancouver’s Volunteer Programs staff and volunteers from our Adopt-A-Park program for a morning of invasive plant removal.

We will be removing ivy with a focus on the trees.

  • Training, gloves, tools, water, and snacks will be provided.

  • This opportunity is family-friendly and great for teens. Youth under 18 must bring a signed minor consent form.

  • Volunteers should dress for the weather and wear long pants and closed-toe shoes.

  • Advance registration is requested. Sign up today!

Accessibility is important to us and we’ve taken it into account while planning this event:

  • This location is wheelchair accessible, and work is primarily done in a quiet natural area with potential for some infrequent loud work sounds.

  • For mulching projects, volunteers may be shoveling, twisting and turning, and pushing wheelbarrows.

  • For invasive removal projects, volunteers may be kneeling, pulling, and twisting as well as possibly lifting plants overhead to load into a dumpster.

  • There will be a space in the RSVP form for you to let us know if there are any accessibility needs you have so that we can do our best to find a volunteer role that will work for you.

(Registration will close two days prior to the event at 2 p.m. If registration is closed and you are still interested in attending, please email cityvolunteer@cityofvancouver.us to let us know you will be a walk-up and you can sign in on-site.)
