Please support SAAWA Weed Harvester Operating Fund.
With an Association-owned harvester, we plan to make significant improvements in areas of weed infestation, but your support is needed to make the harvesting program a success.
Step 1. Note your Administrative Area. We will try to allocate more time to those areas contributing greater amounts to the operating Fund, so make sure to note your adminstrative area number (see description on left) in the comments of the donation form,

Shoreline property owners are encouraged to work with the weed harvester when it is in your area. As weeds are cut, excess weeds sometimes wash up on shore. If a property owner is there to help rake them into the Harvester intake, your area will be left cleaner and the harvesting proceeds very efficiently.
We intend to operate the weed harvester 5 days a week from July 15 through August 30 and on four Saturdays during that period to help shoreline property owners clean up weeds which may wash up on shore.
