Invasive plants are non-native species that spread aggressively, outcompeting local vegetation and disrupting ecosystems. They can choke out native plants, reduce biodiversity, and harm wildlife habitats. Invasive species like kudzu and wisteria grow rapidly, covering trees and structures, leading to long-term environmental damage. Removing these plants helps restore balance, allowing native species to thrive and improving the health of the land and water.
Learn about the "cut-stump" technique for targeting invasives. This method is easy and can be done by anyone!
π Watch the video!
While David was with us, we went down to the dam and cleared much of the kudzu from the road, and started the "cut-stump" technique.
Keep an eye out for future events!
The Association will be supplying the herbicide bottles, and safety supplies that you can access to pitch in!
This is a grass-roots effort, and if we all pitch in, we'll keep the kudzu and other invasives at bay, and reclaim the space for more beautiful, native plants in the future.
