Russian Olive Removal with City of Greeley Natural Area & Trails
Russian Olives are an invasive species that inhibits the growth of other tree and shrub species native to Colorado. The can reproduce by seed and root suckers, so we will be cutting the trees and then a city staff member will be applying herbicide to the stumps to inhibit the growth of root suckers. This combines both invasive species management and ecological restoration as the removal of this species will allow more native plants to thrive.
