Become a citizen scientist and help the CRWP track and remove invasive plants across the watershed!
Use our CRWP Invasive Plants Project, hosted on the citizen science platform, Anecdata.org, to report invasive plant observations, view past invasive plant work, participate in the invasive weed smackdown, and check out where the invasive plant crew is tackling invasives in real-time. Join us in the fight against invasive plants!
How to Participate:
Visit the main Copper River Watershed Invasive Plant Reporter project page – from there clicking the ‘Add Observation’ button will open up the option to select one of two datasheets. The ‘Invasive Plant Reporter’ Datasheet will bring you to a datasheet where you can report invasive plant sightings. The ‘E-Weed Smackdown’ Datasheet will bring you to the Invasive Weed Smackdown datasheet where you can report the amount and species you pulled. Check out the PDF instructions and video tutorial below for more help.
Contact invasives@copperriver.org with any questions and let us know if you’d like some native plant seeds as a thank you for your help and keeping the Copper River watershed free of invasive plants!
