<p>In 2024, Connecticut designated several new plants as invasive, posing a threat to our state’s biodiversity. Member Giulia Gambale, UConn Certified Master Gardener and member of the Connecticut Invasive Plant Working Group (CIPWG), will help us understand how we can responsibly address this issue.</p>
<p>Giulia will share the latest research, provide identification tips, and share effective management strategies to help combat the spread of these invasive species. In addition, you will learn how to choose native and near-native plants to preserve our ecosystems. Discover how you can participate in this ethical effort to protect the environment!</p>
<p>Join us for half an hour of coffee and conversation at 6:30 PM, followed by the main program after brief announcements at 7:00 PM.</p>
