Festival Hill Invasive Plants Identification
Invasive species identification is the first line of defense against the spread of invasive species. Often plants are introduced for a variety of good landscaping or gardening reasons but the results to the native environment can be disastrous. Festival Hill in Round Top has graciously agreed to partner with the Gideon Lincecum Chapter in the identification of invasive species located on their campus. For more information about volunteer opportunities at Festival Hill, please contact Judith Deaton.
Public Speakers at Round Top Library
Master Naturalist, Susan Solari, is organizing volunteers for public speaking engagements. Please contact Susan for information on topics, dates, and opportunities.
