Community members, volunteers, and interested professionals are invited to register for this virtual mini-workshop focused on replacing invasive species with those native to Pennsylvania in landscapes and water gardens. Landscaping and water gardening activities often lead to the unintended introduction and spread of invasive plant species to our natural lands and waterways. Preventing invasive plant introductions by utilizing native alternatives in landscapes and water gardens is a viable solution. This Choose Native mini-workshop will introduce participants to native species options and creative ways to include native species in landscapes and aquatic designs.
This mini-workshop is hosted by Pennsylvania Sea Grant and Penn State Extension with a special guest presentation by Native Creations Landscaping Services. This event is being offered at no charge to participants thanks to funding from the Richard King Mellon Foundation and our partner, the Great Lakes Commission. Registration is required to receive the link to access the webinar. Registrants will also receive access to the webinar recording.
