This is brushweed. Brush weed is a common plant found in wetlands. We took the seeds of brush weed in an already established wetland and spread them in a potential wetland. This will benefit the environment by making another wetland which creates organism homes, filters water, and helps prevent water runoff by acting as a reservoir.
In the picture below we are removing buckthorn from the area to give oak trees room to grow. This improved the environment in an assortment of ways. Buckthorn is an invasive species and dries up the ground. With an oak tree thriving, homes are created, there is another source of food, and the ground is more hydrated and protected from extreme heat and droughts.
