Plant pull
Andy Ritter, 18, of Fayetteville (above photo) holds up an invasive plant Sunday at the Lake Fayetteville Environmental Study Center in Springdale. Fayetteville High School, Fayetteville Parks and Recreation and the Washington County Extension Office partnered together to remove invasive plants. The student-led effort improves water quality and habitat along the lake shore by removing invasive bush honeysuckle, Chinese privet and creeping euonymus.
