Anyone who has worked to manage invasive plants like garlic mustard or autumn olive knows they are playing the long game. When new invasive plants, like those on Michigan’s Watch List, arrive in our state, they don’t come with a playbook. Determining how to effectively contain and control, or even where to look for emerging populations of watch list plants requires teamwork. Join Katie Grzesiak and Drew Rayner of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to learn how Michigan’s Invasive Species Program is using federal grant funds to develop response plans and support local management of mile-a-minute weed, stiltgrass, lesser celandine and other invasive plants.

 

Accommodations Deadline: Individuals needing language assistance or accommodations for effective participation should contact Joel Roseberry at RoseberryJ@Michigan.gov 2 weeks prior to request language, mobility, visual, hearing, translation, and/or other assistance.
