Weeds

Merely annoying in your lawn and garden, weeds can be devastating to agriculture, open spaces, and native species. Invasive weeds may crowd out native vegetation, degrade wildlife habitat and livestock forage, increase the risk of catastrophic wildfire and be very difficult and expensive to eradicate or control. We work to educate land managers and the public about control and management of invasive species.
