(This class has been rescheduled from 4/11/24). Join Tree Steward Tim Maywalt for this informative two-part class on managing invasive plants in our area. Part 2 of this class concentrates on Control Methods.
Managing the invasive plants that are overtaking our green spaces is a challenge. But any of us can do it with the knowledge to identify and treat them. This class will show you how to identify common invasive plants in the Virginia Piedmont and illustrate a wide range of options for treating them. The event is free but registration is required (see the Eventbrite link).
