Identify and Map Invasive Plants - Training Opportunity

Non-native invasive plants threaten the natural diversity and beauty of northern Michigan. Managing invasive species becomes prohibitively costly as an infestation grows. To minimize these costs, many land managers such as LTC are attempting to detect infestations early on. But we need more people to help us patrol for these situations. If you have an interest in plants and would like to know how to identify and map invasive plants on LTC preserves, join us on April 11 when LTC?s Derek Shiels will lead a class on terrestrial invasive species management. Come at 11:00am for the kick off of our new EcoSteward volunteer program and stay for lunch. Register by calling LTC or visiting our website.
