Tree and Invasive Species Presentation October 22
The Killingworth Conservation Commission is delighted to sponsor a program presented by Gail Reynolds, an expert on invasive plants, tree endangerment and native ecosystems.
Come and learn what makes a plant invasive in Connecticut, what plants are listed as invasive in Connecticut, and the harm invasive plants can do to our native ecosystems. Invasive plants will never be eliminated but there are steps to mitigate the damage invasive plants cause.
Gail Reynolds graduated from Yale University with a B.S. in Biology and a M.F.S. in Forest Ecology. She had a long career as an Information Security Professional, earning five industry certifications. Gail has worked for UConn Extension as Master Gardener Coordinator and Master Composter Coordinator. Gail and her husband Dan currently own Reynolds Forestry Services LLC. Her interests focus on native plant gardening, technology, land conservation and fitness.
The program is scheduled for October 22 starting at 7:00pm. It will be held at the Killingworth Public Library and is free and open to the public.
