Volunteers will meet at the Pueblo of Jemez Welcome Center, just past the Walatowa gas station and convenience store, about 1 ½ miles past the Pueblo of Jemez on State Route 4. at 9:00 am. CFLRP partners and industry professionals will conduct a brief training on plant identification and then split into groups to go out and survey the project area. Volunteers will be teamed up with folks experienced in invasive plant identification. Bring a lunch and water.

Participants should download the Wildspotter app to their smartphones if they have one to help in documenting weed locations.
