Conservation and Land Management

Join members of Friends of Kennedy Heights Park, Kennedy Heights Community Council, Friends of French Park, and Pleasant Ridge Community Council as we learn about and improve Kennedy Heights Park.

Our focus will be more on increasing our understanding of all the lants and animals that live in our parks rather than focusing on a few invasive plants that need to be removed (we will still remove them). Everything we learn will be usable whenever you spend time outdoors - whether it’s working in your yard, choosing what plants to put in your yard, just enjoying the outdoors, or you’re out hiking and you encounter a plant you’ve never seen before. We will start learning how and increase our ability to identify everything we encounter, regardless of season.

Members of Stanbery Park Advisory Council are partnering with Cincinnati Parks Conservation & Land Management to fight invasive species in the forests of Stanbery Park! 

Schedule

Saturday, October 3rd | 9am - 12pm Amur honeysuckle 

The Stowe Park Advisory Council launched efforts in 2025 to support the gardens and grounds of the Harriet Beecher Stowe House. Plans include improving gardens by removing invasive species, planting natives and installing educational signage. The CPAC is working in collaboration with the Harriet Beecher Stowe House leadership. 

Northside Greenspace Inc. is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization founded to identify, preserve and restore natural areas in Northside and surrounding Cincinnati, Ohio communities.

Workshops and lectures provide information concerning the issues and processes influencing our community natural areas. Our field trips provide community members with the opportunity to experience the beauty and interest of nature.

Join in the efforts hosted by The Friends of LaBoiteaux Woods (CPAC) to improve the state of the natural resources this forest offers. 

Spring events: Garlic Mustard pulling, Winter Creeper and other invasive vines pulling/cutting.
