Arboretum Invasive Plant Removal Training
Saturday March 29th 9am - 12 noon

The Arboretum is an environmental gem in East Pennsboro Township. We are trying to educate residents on invasive plants and how to remove them efficiently. This seminar will give you identification skills to find garlic mustard, privet and multiflora plant species. We will also teach the environmentally safe way to remove these invasive species from the gorgeous Arboretum. This Arboretum has tons of historical and natural wild flower value. For more information on this park, please check out the history by clicking on the box to the left.

We really need your help to tackle this 15 acre area! If you are interested in joining us for the Removal Training Day, please call the Recreation Department at 909-5630.
