Project Goals and News
One challenge is that the ivy has grown up trees. Ive seen several methods of how to remove yet and I know if you do it the wrong way damage can actually occur to the tree trunk. Measuring success would be making sure this ivy does not grow back after removal and especially after native re-planting.
