5/20/2024 - Native vs Invasive Plants on June 13, 2024

On Thursday, June 13, 2024 from 2-3:30pm in the Kingsley Room, join us to learn more about native plants.

Not all plants are good for our environment. Explore how invasive plant species damage our ecosystem and how we can lessen their impact. Join us as we learn about the benefits of planting native plants and where to find them, how to plant them, and when to do so.

Allison Middlemass is a naturalist, environmental educator, and artist. She grew up in nature and a wildlife-loving family who cultivated her passion for wildlife conservation from a young age. She works as the Senior Coordinator of Community Conservation Programs at the Bent of the River Audubon Center in Southbury CT.
