February 26 – March 1, 2024 is National Invasive Species Awareness Week.

You’ll likely see many invasive species as you explore nature. Invasive plants are non-native plants that have a negative effect on native plants and animals.

The NC Invasive Plant Council and the North Carolina Native Plant Society have published a comprehensive list of invasive species for our area.
