FREE INVASIVE PLANT WALK, TALK and CUT

When: Saturday, June 7, 10 – 12 noon with extension to 3:30 pm.

Where: David Hayes Sculpture Fields
905 South St, Coventry, CT 06238

Rain or shine.

What: Rose Hiskes, CIPWG Co-chair, will take us on a 2 hour walk around these public fields to discuss the invasive species we find. Identification and management techniques for each species will be discussed.  Please wear proper footwear for the walk and bring water.  Be prepared for ticks by wearing light colored clothing and tuck your pants into your socks.  In the event of very bad weather check your email the night before.

If you want, bring a bag lunch and some pruners.  Stay another hour or two, as you are able, to cut and remove some of the invasives we have found.

Attendance is limited to the first fifteen people who register by June 1.
