Invasives: ID, Ecology, and Control

Get a head start on invasive control this year by learning to identify invasives in the early season. This course provides an introduction to about 40 of the most common invasive non-native plants in our local landscapes. Through lecture, discussion, power-point presentation, herbarium specimens, and a walk outside, become familiar with identification clues as well as the habits of a number of these plants that are so disruptive to natural ecosytems. $48/class for Members, $58/class for Nonmembers.
