NOMINATIONS

The nomination process is open for neighborhoods, parks or local private or community areas (such as an HOA) invaded with weeds for this year’s Weed Warriors Mitigation Project. To nominate an area of concern, please fill out the downloadable Nomination Form (including photos of the weeds you have found) to nominate your neighborhood for the next round in our mitigation strategy. 

Regarding weeds identified on federal, state or county-owned lands, please contact Eagle County Vegetation Management directly to report concerns.

HOW IT WORKS

• Start by identifying what invasive vegetation species have invaded your neighborhood.
• Using the Bingo & Guide, find what types of weeds you have in your area. If using the bingo card, you can mark an X on the species you see. You do not need to complete the bingo card to submit a Nomination Form, though we highly encourage you to partake in this fun identifying activity.
• Please photograph invasive weeds you identify and note their locations.
• When you have completed your inventory, fill out and submit your nomination form, along with photos to weeds@erwc.org. Mailed submissions can be sent to PO Box 1477, Gypsum, CO 81637.
• The Weed Warriors Team will review your submission and get back to you with how we can support your mitigation goals.

FINE PRINT

• Finalist communities must be willing to work with partners on video content creation (you don’t have to be filmed if you choose not to, but video content from the neighborhood will likely be shared).
• Communities selected must help recruit volunteers for the project and be prepared to work with the Weed Warriors Team on a yearly mitigation plan to keep the weeds away.
• For vegetation-specific questions, contact Eagle County Vegetation Management at weeds@eaglecounty.us
