Join us on Tuesday February 8th at 2 pm for a Zoom presentation by Deedy Wright on invasive plants – I’m Being Invaded! – What Can I Do? Have you noticed a lot of non-native plants growing rampantly in your neighborhood? Want to learn what to do about them?
This program will identify some of the more common invasive plants in our area, what makes them so invasive and why they are so popular, plus show you some native plants that can replace them and are good for our environment.
