Non-native Plants and Insects hike at Whaleback

Let’s walk and talk about the invasive plants and insects that share space with our native trees and plants. At Whaleback, we have lost the ash trees and now the beech are snapping. 185 new trees have been planted. Sweet woodruff has been greatly reduced and the spring ephemerals are recovering. Oops, someone deposited their yard waste at Whaleback. And then there is the wineberry. What new invasives could arrive? Join Docents Sharon Oriel and Shelley Yeager to discover answers to some of these questions.
