A River Center Rally Team

Our Mission: Eradication of the invasive & noxious Scotch Broom along the Olympic Discovery Trail, while raising money for the Dungeness River Audubon Center’s education programs Sequim, WA www.DungenessRiverCenter.org

Since we began in 2013, BROOM BUSTERS have completed 790 volunteer hours & have raised over $14,643 for the Dungeness River Audubon Center’s education programs. In 2018 the Clallam County Noxious Weed Board asked that we keep count of the number of Scotch Broom plants we extract. 2018-2019 we took out 29,713 small, medium and large plants out by their roots.
