Medlock Forest Ivy Platoon was at it again this weekend, fighting the scourge of English ivy near the PATH entrance. Here's some of their fine work. Thanks, all!

At the PATH's entrance, these trees say "thank you!" |
Additional ivy removal is scheduled for February 16 and 23, noon - 3pm. Meet at the community garden on the corner of Willivee and Scott Circle. Loppers, machetes, hand saws and pruning shears were the most useful tools at the last event. For comfort and safety, please wear long sleeves and pants.

But this one won't be bloomin' no mo'. |
