· Saturday, April 19 - Impact of Invasives and Native Resilience Walk at Petravice Family Preserve (9:00am-11:00am) - During this hike through a former nursery site, we’ll explore invasive plants and their impact on the preserve. We will explore what makes them invasive, what conditions allow them to invade, and how native habitats can fight back. Additionally, we’ll compare urban areas to less disturbed environments and how they differ in supporting biodiversity.
