Into the Field: Early Stage Plant and Weed ID

Join Karin Jokela, Xerces Society and Reva Ruehling, Pheasants Forever Farm Bill Biologist, for a half day field based training focused on identifying native plants and common weeds in a first year native vegetation planting. This training will emphasize early stage plant identification to help you better support landowners who are managing weeds during establishment. We will explore key ID features, discuss helpful resources and techniques, and review how site preparation influences successful establishment. At the end of the training, participants will work together to apply and test the skills learned throughout the morning.
