Invasive Plant Surveys at Pisgah State Park

As a member of the Pisgah State Park Technical Team, AVEO is collaborating with Antioch University New England, Keene State College, Franklin Pierce University, Moosewood Ecological Services, and the New Hampshire Division of Forests and Lands to inform landscape-level management planning for the park. Beginning this autumn, AVEO volunteers will survey roads and trails throughout Pisgah for the presence (and, hopefully, absence!) of select invasive plant species, in order to help track and control the introduction and spread of these harmful non-native plants.

Trainings for the Pisgah State Park Invasive Plant Survey will be held on Friday, September 26 and Tuesday, September 30 from 4 - 6:30 pm in the Keene State College Science Center, with fieldwork to take place in October.  Interested volunteers need only attend one training.  Training is free, but registration is required.
