Broom Buster's Sweeping Mission
Now in its 12th year
BroomBusters quells
the Scotch Broom invasion
& funds River Center Education
Our BroomBusters team of pullers goes after Scotch Broom for four weeks, every Wednesday, along the Olympic Discovery Trail, removing hundreds of plants before they bear flowers and scatter seeds.
Your donation today teaches the public about invasive and toxic plants and how to eradicate them.
The Dungeness Watershed
relies on a healthy and diverse plant community.
Scotch broom crowds out natives--nothing can grow in their path except more Scotch broom
Your donation today to BroomBusters will pay for River Center classes, lectures, and field trips about invasive plants, non-native plants, and native trees, shrubs, plants, and wildflowers that local pollinators, insects, deer, elk, hummingbirds--and even bears rely on.
Your donation is tax deductible to the extent of the law. You will receive a tax letter from the Dungeness River Nature Center, EIS Tax ID is 91-1632949
