Distinguishing Invasive Plants and Native Look-a-likes in Late Winter and Early Spring
A workshop led by Bill Moorhead

April 11, 2019 from 9 am to 3 pm











Come learn to identify invasive plants in the field in leaf-off condition! Late winter/early spring is prime season to touch up on your skills and get a jump on these pesky plants. This time of year is ideal for certain methods of management, but identification can be tricky. With the help of consulting field botanist Bill Moorhead you will learn to identify invasive plants (emphasis on woody species) in both terrestrial and wetland ecosystems, and distinguish them from those native plants with which they may be confused. Emphasis is on identification, but the workshop includes discussions of management and control methods and strategies for various species. This workshop is co-sponsored with the Connecticut Botanical Society. 

Location: Aton Forest Headquarters, 270 North Colebrook Rd., Norfolk, CT 06058.

 Tuition: $85 - we accept check by mail (PO Box 509, Norfolk, CT 06058) or card via PayPal (http://atonforest.org); coffee, tea and other beverages provided.
