It was a lovely morning when 10 Edgemontonians and one Silver Springer showed up to pull thistles in the ravine. Jim Davis and his co-worker, Jean, from the City of Calgary, directed us to cut the thistles at the base rather than pull them out.

Our volunteers were amazingly enthusiastic, filling two truckloads of thistles, which then had to be taken to a special disposal site. Thistles are considered noxious weeds and must be removed by homeowners and then disposed of in your black bin.

We hope to do this again next year, so please consider joining us!
