Event Update: Garlic Mustard Pull → Bee Campus Garden Relocation

Thanks to the incredible work of volunteers over the past several years, garlic mustard populations on campus are much lower than expected this spring. As a result, we’re revising this event. Instead of a garlic mustard pull, volunteers will take part in a native plant relocation project. Participants will help dig up and carefully move native plants that are currently located in the footprint of an upcoming construction project. These plants will be relocated to new sites on campus, where they can continue to grow.

Please meet at the Bee Campus Garden near the southwest corner of Catlett Residence Hall (350 North Madison). Please wear closed‑toe shoes and long pants for safety.
