Events

Invasive plants threaten biodiversity and degrade habitats for native wildlife.  Learn what makes invasives harmful, how to recognize species common to our area, and what strategies homeowners can use to control or eliminate these noxious weeds on their own property.  After a short introductory talk, we will walk around Coogan Farm to see and discuss how selected sites are being managed to replace invasive-dominated landscapes with diverse native plant communities to improve habitat for wildlife and human enjoyment.

Your instructor is Lydia Pan, who leads a team of habitat restoration volunteers at Coogan Farm.  Meet outside the Avery Farmhouse, lower level.

This program is free of charge and open to the public.  Registration is requested since gruop size will be limited.  Offered in partnership with the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center.
