Got knotweed? Join the Sheepscot Knotweed Project experts to learn how to control knotweed on your property! They will go over knotweed biology and management methods for knotweed patches of any size, in any location. The workshop will take place in a demonstration knotweed patch so attendees have the opportunity to see different methods at work. Help us protect water quality in the Sheepscot River and native biodiversity everywhere by fighting knotweed!
The workshop is unstructured with multiple knotweed experts on site. Drop by any time from 10am-12pm to talk and learn from one of them about your knotweed patch and tour the demonstration site. There will also be a sign up sheet if you’d like to receive or offer help fighting knotweed in your neighborhood. Bring sturdy walking shoes, long pants, work gloves, and your questions!
NOTE the demonstration knotweed patch is across the street from Trout Brook Preserve so will require a 5 minute (~¼ mile) walk down the street from the parking lot. Signs and the parking attendant will point you in the right direction.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the Sheepscot Knotweed Project at sheepscotknotweedproject@gmail.com. If you are interested in seeing the Knotweed problem along the river for yourself, come join our Sheepscot River Knotweed Float July 16th 2-4pm @Head Tide Dam in Alna.
