The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department and the BattenKill Watershed Comprehensive Invasive Species Management Association are co-hosting a workshop for landowners on combating invasive plants on Saturday, April 27 at 9:30 a.m. in Manchester, Vermont. The workshop is free and open to the public and will last two to three hours.
Biologist Travis Hart will present at the event. He will highlight how to identify invasive plants in the region and give landowners tips on what to do if these plants are found on their property. They will also discuss the impact that these plants can have on wildlife habitat. The group will meet at the Burr and Burton Academy student parking lot on West Union Street in Manchester and walk over to the Equinox Preserve.
