This is a hands-on class. After an introduction to the general ecology of the five functional groups of invasive plants (shrubs, perennial forbs, clonal perennials, grasses, annuals/biennials), we will discuss, demonstrate and practice all applicable control methods (chemical and non-chemical) for these plant types and suggest native plantings after invasive removal. Workshop class size is limited and classes fill fast, so mark your calendar! Registration for the June 11 workshop will open on May 9, 2022.
