Weed Warriors 101: Invasive Plants in Urban Ecosystems

May 7 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Weed Warriors help the Department of Recreation and Parks manage Non-Native Invasive (NNI) plants which are harmful to trees and forest patches. Certified Weed Warriors are community members, like you, trained as environmental stewards by TreeBaltimore!

Weed Warriors 101: Invasive Plants in Urban Ecosystems provides an introduction to non-native invasive plant species, how they were introduced to new areas, and why they thrive in cities.

The 101 class is the first in a four-part series to certify Weed Warriors to independently remove invasive plants from Baltimore City parks and forested natural areas; in order to become fully certified, you will need to attend all four classes and to participate in a volunteer event led by a Certified Weed Warrior. The certification class series can be taken across multiple seasons, and in any order.
