We're growing...
Weed Wrangle® projects are organized, at the core, by individual Garden Club of America clubs but participation is beginning to come from additional venues across the county. Federal, state and local public lands can still participate, even if there is no GCA club in the vicinity. Much to our surprise, we currently have more public lands involved than GCA clubs, indicating expansion beyond our origin.
​
Weed Wrangle originated in Tennessee and over the past ten years in Tennessee alone, our partners have hosted 537 Weed Wrangle events utilizing 7,595 volunteers that have given total of 636,970 hours of volunteer service. They have removed approximately 184,295 invasive plants and replanted 3,693 native plants and trees along with the planting of native seeds.
