Make your summer plans to volunteer in Anchorage’s parks! ASWCD has partnered with Anchorage Parks and Recreation and Anchorage Park foundation to plan a bunch of Invasive Plant Pulls and Tree Planting events across Anchorage.

If your local park is not on the list, contact us and we can help coordinate invasive plant pulls in other areas!
