Utah’s Hogle Zoo Conservation Action – Puncturevine Removal

August 5, 2026
6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Help remove puncturevine (A.K.A. goathead) from the Jordan River Trail.

Help us restore natural habitat along the Jordan River by removing invasive puncturevine (A.K.A. goatheads)! . This invasive species impacts native plants and trail users. Activities require stooping and bending with weeding tools. These activities help re-establish a healthy environment for both wildlife and people to enjoy.

Event location will be determined based on need and communicated as soon as possble.

What to Bring & Wear:

  • Closed-toe shoes
  • Weather-appropriate clothing
  • Sun protection (hat, sunscreen, etc.)
  • A reusable water bottle – we will provide a cooler for refills

Hogle Zoo will provide all necessary tools for the event.

Please submit one registration per participant. Adult guardians may register children who are volunteering with them.
