Invasive Plant Ecology and Identification

May 21, 2020 @ 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Invasive plants can over-run wildlife habitat, strangle trees, and change soil microbe communities in ways that harm forests and other natural areas. You can help by learning to recognize these plants. Come learn: what is an invasive plant, and why are invasive plants harmful? Where do they come from, and how do they spread? How do I recognize the top invasive plants in Maine?

Instructor Nancy Olmstead is an Invasive Plant Biologist with the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry.
