Buckthorn is that invasive tree and shrub that is harming our native habitats. You will learn how to identify both types of buckthorn and removal techniques, including chemical and chemical-free control. This class is timely because fall is the absolute best time for buckthorn control. This class is taught by Washington County Master Gardeners Kim Dupre and Jane Tyler.Kim Dupre & Jane Tyler: After retiring from her IT career, Kim returned to her farm roots and became a certified University of Minnesota Extension Master Gardener in 2019.
