Honeysuckle Removal at Seibert Park
Project at Seibert Park in Manchester, MO. at the corner of Manchester Road and Sulphur Springs Road. Entrance to the parking lot is on the east side of Sulphur Springs. It's a 3-acre park along Grand Glaize Creek. The City of Manchester cleared a lot of honeysuckle close to the foot bridge to prepare for some infrastructure repair. We're going to finish removing the honeysuckle throughout the rest of the park.
Please bring loppers, clippers, herbicide wands, chain saws. I like to wear work gloves. There will be some work on steep slopes. Sturdy shoes would be good. A bottle of water. |
