Horse+Shoe+Farm+Bamboo+Removal+in+Wake+Forest

On January 13th volunteers were needed at the Horseshoe farm in Wake Forest to clear the invasive species. The invasive species was bamboo because it affects the biodiversity in the area and takes over that land.We cut down the bamboo trees and dragged them out of the area. We did a great job and cleared a large chunk of the land of bamboo. This relates to APES because we learned about invasive species and how harmful they can be to our environment. Invasive species are harmful to the environment and economy. They can kick out a native species and decrease the native biodiversity in the area. They also lack predators so they don't naturally die out so easily.
