Invasive Phragmites are spreading north and becoming a growing concern in Sudbury. This fast-growing reed can quickly take over wetlands, shorelines, and natural areas, reducing biodiversity and displacing native plants and wildlife. Beyond its ecological impact, Phragmites can affect waterfront properties, trails, and green spaces. Once established, managing patches can become costly and time-consuming.
Join us for a unique opportunity to learn from experts from the Invasive Phragmites Control Centre! Take part in FREE workshops and hands-on field demonstrations to discover how to identify, manage, and prevent the spread of invasive Phragmites while helping protect our local waterways, wetlands, trails, and natural areas.
