Greetings,

We are just a few days away from the official start to Spring!! Let the excitement begin! Planning, planting, & watching those little plant babies grow...hopefully you are finding plenty of time for all the fun this season brings!

While we get excited watching our native plant babies waking up, this season also finds us dealing with unwanted invasives waking up, too. Sometimes, they can easily stand out because they may green up before most natives will. Keep an eye around for that to hone in on some issues with invasives.

Today, we would like to share our resources on the invasive Bradford/Callery Pear Tree. This tree has been a popular staple in suburban landscaping for the past few decades. It is now becoming illegal to sell in more states.

Please enjoy diving in and learning all about the story of the Bradford Pear Tree and share it where you are able to continue to help educate on the issues with this tree and many other invasives.

You can find these resources on our Facebook & Instagram pages today, where you can share them.

Thank you for helping to spread awareness and increase the likelihood for more people to make better choices in their tree and plant selections.
