Do you know “What Has Wandered into Your Woods?” This is what Kudzu does to an Illinois woodland. Discover how to mange invasive plants at a workshop on Friday, February 1, 2019, from 9:00 to 3:00 p.m.
Registration starts at 8:30. Register by Tuesday, January 29, at www.TreesForever.org /WanderedIntoYourWoods. The $10 registration fee covers lunch and handouts.
Native plants provide more benefits for the environment than non-native plants, including better food and habitat for animals and pollinators. Help protect our native ecosystem by removing invasive species and implementing sound land-management practices.
