Put your invasive species identification skills into practice with a Stewardship Session within the restoration area of Pritchard Park in Racine! Here, we will spend time identifying and removing invasives that negatively impact Wisconsin’s native plant and animal species.
This is an excellent training event for those interested in habitat restoration and who wish to aid in the protection of native species!
Tools, herbicides, and garbage bags will be provided. Please bring gloves, water, bug spray, and dress for the weather in clothing and shoes you don’t mind getting dirty.
