Chicago Bears employees set out last week to tackle an opponent. But it had nothing to do with the Green Bay Packers.

Some open space was created after a combination of Bears employees and Lake County Forest Preserves volunteers removed buckthorn-infested trees and shrubs Friday.

Bostrom and forest preserves director of community engagement and partnerships Rebekah Snyder greeted the employees and volunteers, and they soon followed stewardship ecologist Kelly Schultz who labeled buckthorn in the same way some Bears fans might describe Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. “Literally it is changing the foundation of the other trees and the flowers that were here,” she said.

Among the Bears employees taking part was director of stadium and event operations Bryan Pett, who took a saw to trees.“I don’t know if I had ever heard of buckthorn,” he said. “I thought it was more of a weed than it was a tree.”
