River Walks: Taking Note of Non-Local Plants

While some plants have been established in this region for a very long time, other plants are newcomers who happen to be good competitors with incredible survival skills. Do you know who is who? Get to know some of these plants who are “non-local plant beings” (another term for non-native species) and join staff from Fond du Lac Band’s Resource Management department as we take a walk among the plants. We’ll get to know some of the area’s rooted non-local beings as well as some native plants, and learn about the approaches that Fond du Lac staff take to work with these plants on the landscape. Please park and meet at Lot 4 on WI Point. Come prepared with comfortable clothing and footwear and be prepared to be outside in the elements for the duration of the walk. There is poison ivy just off the trails that we will be walking, so we recommend wearing long pants and close-toed shoes.
