Managing Invasive Plants on Your Property

KELT will be holding this free educational workshop focused on invasive plant management. The program will provide residents and property managers across the region with information to support identifying, managing and eradicating the harmful plants.  

At this program, manual methods and herbicide methods for removing invasive plants will be demonstrated, and attendees will have a chance to try them out.  From barberry to bittersweet, different methods work better for different types of plants.  KELT's Stewardship Consultant, Cheri Brunault, will introduce the plants and highlight which methods work best for which plants. 

This is a light rain or shine event and registration is strongly encouraged at using the form below or call 207-442-8400.
