Do you want to help tackle invasives in your community? Do you have questions about the most effective strategies to prevent the spread of invasives across the state?
Come learn about cooperative groups across the state that can help you with invasives management. Cooperative Invasives Species Management Associations, or CISMAs, are non-profit volunteer groups that monitor and respond to the spread of invasive species and share educational and other resources to help communities control invasives in their area.
We'll hear from the natural resource professionals behind Vermont's five CISMAs: Southeast, Upper Connecticut River, Orleans County, Batten Kill, and White River. We'll learn about their ongoing projects throughout the state as well as effective management practices – from inspiring community involvement with Japanese Knotweed patches to planting native trees that can restore the balance. Join a conversation on April 15th online from 7-8 pm centered on our shared love for Vermont's natural habitat and learn how to preserve and rebuild our state's most vulnerable habitats.
