Offered in partnership with Greenwich Land Trust

Join us for a walk with Dan Brubaker, Director of Conservation and Outreach at Greenwich Land Trust, looking at invasive plant identification and management. We'll walk the GBC grounds, identify some of the more common invasive plants here in Greenwich, and discuss various ways to manage them on your own property. We'll touch on how different species spread, why certain species become invasive, and the role that deer and disturbance play in our local habitats.
