Advanced Invasive Plant Identification is a course focusing on emerging invasive plants.  Emerging invasive plants are non-native species just starting to become established in the region.  Early detection can help protect the region’s native species.  The earlier species are detected, the better chance we have of preventing them from becoming widespread. 

This course helps current Invasives Strike Force volunteers gain or brush up on the skills necessary to identify emerging invasive species and conduct phase 2 monitoring along assigned trail sections. 

This data helps determine where Invasives Strike Force Removal Crews are deployed.

This is an indoor session with live plant examples.

Pre-registration is required.
