Did you know? 🌱

When an invasive plant spreads into a natural habitat, it can have long lasting impacts. Species like periwinkle, goutweed, English ivy, and lily of the valley can take over and form dense monocultures that crowd out other plants, including native species that pollinators and wildlife depend on. 🐝🦋

When purchasing plants for your garden, avoid plants that are invasive in your area and consider native plants instead. Follow this link for gardening resources to help keep your garden healthy: https://bit.ly/4t1k1bl

Our Power, Our Planet 🌎

🌍 Happy Earth Day! This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” is a reminder that everyday actions matter. One impactful way to protect local ecosystems is by reducing the spread of invasive species. Invasive plants and animals can outcompete native species for resources and reduce biodiversity. Here are some ways to help:
✅ Choose native plants for gardens and green spaces
✅ Don't release pets into the wild
✅ Learn how to identify and report invasive species
✅ Clean your boots, gear, and pets before moving between areas
✅ Clean, drain and dry your watercraft
