Invasive & Nuisance Plants in the Forest Landscape: Fall Edition with Illinois Extension

🌿 Some plants quietly—yet quickly—invade and overtake our landscapes, pushing out natives and offering no benefits to people, wildlife, or the environment. Fall can be an ideal time to identify and manage many invasive plants, particularly woody varieties. Join Illinois Extension Educator Jay Solomon and FPWC Natural Resources Director Mike Brien for an engaging walking discussion to learn why managing invasives matters and how to do it effectively.
