SUMMARY:Replacing Invasive Plants with Natives
DESCRIPTION:Registration Procedure: \n\n\n\nRegistration is directly via Zoom; you will receive the confirmation with the Zoom link right away. \n\n\n\nRegister: https://virginiatech.zoom.us/meeting/register/Yl2KnptESJqQn3nHz0sbxQ \n\n\n\nClass Description \n\n\n\nThis talk explains why the destruction of native plant habitats is contributing to a significant and ongoing decline in bird and insect populations.
