Volunteer campaign against hogweed at the N.K. Roerich Estate Museum in Izvara

We invite you to join the volunteer campaign against hogweed on April 18, 2026.

For businesses, fighting hogweed is a serious matter. We are all witnessing firsthand the rapid spread of this poisonous weed.

In 2024, JTI Russia developed and launched a long-term program, “Hogweed Under Control: No Right to Grow,” involving volunteers, environmentalists, and specialists. The International Branch of the All-Russian Society for Conservation of Nature (VOOP) became a key partner.

We invite your company’s volunteers to participate in a one-day volunteer cleanup by digging up hogweed, organized by JTI Russia in partnership with the Leningrad Region All-Russian Society for the Protection of Nature.

The volunteer event will take place at the N.K. Roerich Estate Museum in Izvara, home of Nicholas Roerich, the world-renowned Russian artist, thinker, writer, and traveler.

This is an excellent opportunity for your company to make a tangible contribution to protecting the region, gain practical experience in hogweed control, strengthen team spirit, and demonstrate social responsibility.
