Water Hemlock

Black Butte Ranch Lakeside Bistro Parking Lot

Water Hemlock is listed as the most toxic plant in North America, and we have some in our waterways on the Ranch!  We need a dedicated group of volunteers willing to help with identifying the locations of this plant along some of the waterways.  If you are willing, BBC, along with Cody Stevens, the Ranch’s Natural Resources Specialist, can train you to remove it yourself as safely as possible. If you prefer to do data collection, you can assist in pinpointing the location so Cody can safely remove it.

Sign up below for this important task to make our waterways safe for pets, people and wildlife.
