University of Montana students in the Ecosystem Science & Restoration Program and the Five Valleys Land Trust nonprofit will host a volunteer event for community members of all ages at the confluence of Rock Creek and the Clark Fork River from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 7.

Volunteers will plant native shrubs, such as willows and cottonwoods, as well as pull invasive weeds such as spotted knapweed and common mullein.

Five Valleys Land Trust purchased the Rock Creek Confluence Property in 2012 and immediately began restoring the area. For the past six years, UM students have partnered with the nonprofit to restore the property for recreation and wildlife values.
