Lehigh Valley Greenways - Invasive Species: Our Backyard Invaders Workshop – LVG 22.07

< Back to News RoomFebruary 20th, 2019 |

The workshop offered local educators the opportunity to earn continuing education hours and learn about invasive species removal, identification and the threats they pose to the Lehigh Valley. Penn State Extension presented an introduction to invasive plants and insects; followed by fun, hands-on ways to keep their students engaged in the topic of invasive species. The PA Fish & Boat Commission then gave an informative lecture on the many aquatic invasive species affecting our watersheds. The group was then taken on an invasive plant identification tour of the Camel’s Hump Farm at the Johnston Estate and assisted with stilt grass removal.

Amount: $1,500
