Invasive Plant Management
Tips and Techniques Workshop

Welch Trail Education Center
Saturday, 10/5/24
10am - 2pm

Do you already care for our trails as a volunteer and are looking to take your trail maintenance to the next level?

Are you a homeowner who is frustrated by the invasive plant growth on your property?

In this workshop, you will learn to help protect native plants and wildlife by learning how to identify and remove invasive plants.

Invasives are often the pesky overgrowth that takes over a trail and forested areas that  disrupt the surrounding ecosystem. In this workshop, you will learn some tips and techniques for the timing and type of removal of invasive plants that are common to our region. No prior plant identification skills are required to sign up!

 
Please come prepared with:
  • Work gloves

  • Glasses or Sunglasses for eye protection

  • Plenty of water

  • Lunch and snacks

  • Long pants

  • Sturdy, closed-toe shoes

  • Clippers, loppers, hammers, nail pullers, or handsaw if you have them

Spare tools will be provided for those who don't have them.
