SUMMARY:Invasive Species Removal at Clay Myers
DESCRIPTION:It’s beautiful\, but it’s damaging! Come out and protect native species by trimming back invasive scotch broom at Clay Myers Natural Area.\n\n\nScotch broom is an invasive species that outcompetes native plants by taking the water\, nutrients\, and sunlight they need to survive. This highly-flammable\, aggressive shrub reproduces by seed and requires consistent management. \nOn May 18th from 9am-12pm\, Tillamook Estuaries Partnership and Nestucca\, Neskowin & Sand Lakes Watershed Council are partnering with Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) to remove the abundant scotch broom that has taken up at Clay Myers Natural Area. A ranger from OPRD will support volunteers in learning how to effectively cut back the plant\, mitigating the chance for reproduction. \nFeel free to join for the whole event\, or part of it. There will be signage at the entrance of the trail so folks know where the group will be. \nTEP will bring loppers and a weed wrench\, but feel free to bring your own removal materials as you wish. Other things to bring/wear include: \n\ngloves if you would like them \nlong pants and long-sleeved shirt (layers if it is hot)\nhiking boots or sturdy close-toed shoes\nWater bottle (we will have a jug for you to refill)\nSunscreen\, hat\, etc. in case it is a sunny day!\n\nDirections \nYou will turn off on Whalen Island Road from Sandlake Rd. and veer right towards Clay Myers Natural Area. You will park in the lot and we will be meeting in the grassy area near the restrooms. We will walk out on the south-most trail\, as you can see in the attached image\, and walk about a quarter mile to the location where we will be removing scotch broom. \n***THERE IS NO CELL SERVICE AT CLAY MYERS*** Please be prepared for this. \nAccessibility \nThere are some photos of this location on the Explore Nature’s Know Before You Go Resource page and more photos will be added of the trail prior to the event. The terrain is uneven and fairly sandy. If you have any accessibility needs to attend this event\, please email danielle@tbnep.org. \nBathrooms \nThere are vault toilets next to the parking lot where we will be meeting.
