Making Sense of Invasive Plants and Unwanted Vegetation

Reclaim your home and neighborhood landscapes. This talk emphasizes prevention, identification, and low-impact removal techniques. We also discuss the role of municipalities and other cooperators in invasive plant prevention and management. An extensive handout is included. 

We'll discuss the following topics: 

• What is an invasive plant?
• What is a "state-listed" invasive plant and how does it differ from a "weed"?
• Can native plants be invasive? 
• What tools are available for invasive plant identification?
• How can we fight back effectively while minimizing herbicides?
• How long does invasive plant eradication take?
• What's the role of proper disposal?

This seminar is co-sponsored by Native Plant Trust and Connecticut Forest and Park Association. It will be held at CPFA headquarters in Middlefield, CT. Space is limited; registration is required.
