Georgia Native Plant Society will host its second statewide Weed Wrangle on January 20, 2025 during Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service. Weed Wrangle is a one-day, area-wide, volunteer effort to help rescue our public parks and green spaces from exotic, invasive species through hands-on removal of especially harmful trees, vines and flowering plants.
While many of us work regularly at invasive plant removal, we hope that hosting a statewide weed wrangle will promote awareness, participation and camaraderie during this national day of community service. Participating locations include:
- POSTPONED ABAC’s Georgia Museum of Agriculture Nature Trail in Tifton (Coastal Plain Chapter)
- CANCELED Buffalo Creek Trail in Carrollton (West Georgia Chapter)
- Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve in Stonecrest (Intown Atlanta Chapter)
- Herbert Taylor and Daniel Johnson Park in Atlanta with two dates: January 11 and January 20 at 1:00 p.m. (Intown Atlanta Chapter)
- POSTPONED Mary Scott Nature Park in Atlanta (Intown Atlanta Chapter)
- POSTPONED Old Rucker Park in Alpharetta (North Metro Atlanta Chapter)

- Rose Hill Cemetery in Macon (Fringed Campion Chapter)
- W.D. Thompson Park in Atlanta (Intown Atlanta Chapter)

We hope you’ll participate and bring along your friends and family too!
