🌟 Shoutout to our amazing Youth Volunteer Program! 🌟 The YVP team recently took on a big project, helping to remove invasive plant species growing in the Bush Azalea Trail. They tackled a huge amount of bush honeysuckle, stilt grass, nandina, and privet that were threatening our azalea collection. Invasive plants are among the top threats to endangered native species, including some growing on our trail. Kudos to the team for making a huge difference in the garden and our conservation collections! Your hard work and dedication are truly inspiring. 🌿💪👏 For more information on how you can volunteer to further the Garden's mission, visit https://lnkd.in/gSxZ5t4U. #YouthVolunteerProgram #GardenHeroes #ConservationInAction #HSVgarden #EnvironmentalStewardship #CommunityEngagement
