About the Project
Giant hogweed is an invasive non native species that has spread gradually yet relentlessly through the River Tees catchment area since its introduction in the 1800s.
Tees Operation Giant Hogweed will take a holistic, whole catchment approach to managing a catchment wide issue through a process of intelligence gathering, direct action, education and natural site restoration.
Working with local volunteers, community groups and vested interest groups, the project will:
Map and remove Giant Hogweed
Reverse the loss of biodiversity by re-introducing native flora
Restore access and re-establish a safer amenity of great local importance
Raise awareness and educate people about Giant Hogweed
