Invasive plants [aka Non-Native Invasives (NNIs)] present one of the greatest threats to the health and biodiversity of our parks. By taking over the areas around our Nature Center, the plants are removing the food source and habitat for our native plants and animals. With your help, we can remove these plants and restore the habitat! We are looking for groups or individuals. We will train you which are the good plants and which ones are bad. This would be a great team building activity and learning opportunity for you and/or your group!
