Join Willamette Riverkeeper, Yamhill Soil & Water Conservation District, and Oregon Parks & Recreation Department for the third “Paddle & Pull” event of the summer. Come spend the day with us to paddle a beautiful Willamette River side channel from Ediger Landing to Grand Island Greenway and help hand-pull aquatic invasive species Ludwigia (water-primrose), Myriophyllum aquaticum (parrotfeather), and more. These aquatic weeds continue to degrade fish & wildlife habitat in our rivers and have negative impacts on our native vegetation, water quality and the overall watershed health. This is an on-water event, so experience on moving water is recommended. We have ten tandem canoes (20 seats) for volunteers. If you’d like to borrow one for the day you MUST SELECT this option in the “Add On” section of registration. Reserve a seat, and make a new friend!
There are kayaks available for up to 20 participants, so make sure you sign up today to reserve your spot!
