Description
Curious about the seemingly innocuous plants you’ve observed volunteers removing from the Reservation during the summertime? Or are you suspicious of some strange new visitors popping up in your garden or climbing up your fences?
Join Ted Elliman, botanist extraordinaire formerly of the New England Wildflower Society, for an evening walk around the Reservation, in which he will teach how to identify common invasive plants, share why these invasive species pose such a danger to native plant and animal communities, and how to manage them for the health of our local ecosystems. Please RSVP to fpr@cambridgema.gov! Temporary parking passes will be available for any non-Cambridge residents.
Ted will also bring copies of his new book, Wildflowers of New England for purchase. The cost is $24 for Wild Flower Society members, and $26.50 for non-members. He can accept cash or personal checks, but not credit cards.
