Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge is located in Ridgefield, WA (about 30
minutes north of Portland). We could really use your help pulling ricefield
bulrush (Scirpus mucronatus) which was accidentally introduced onto the
refuge during habitat restoration projects in the 1990s. Since the scirpus
occurs in "off limits" areas, volunteers are invited to experience wetland
habitats while participating in 'on the ground conservation.' For more
information, call the refuge office at 360.887.4106 or email Elena Perez-Lizano
