LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lake County Weed Management Area is hosting its 16th annual “Invasive Weeds Tour” on Thursday, May 9.
The event is being held in May this year in hopes of avoiding the July heat and viewing the weeds while they are still green and in flower.
As always, it is free and the public is welcome and encouraged to attend.
Participants will gather in front of the Ranch House at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park, 8400 State Highway 53 between Clearlake and Lower Lake, at 9 a.m.
They will take a leisurely guided walk of about a mile to see the amazingly diverse array of invasive plants that flourish in the park and the effects of control mechanisms such as control burns, and return to the house for lunch and discussion of aquatic invasive weeds under the trees.
Although the event is completely free and all members of the public are invited, reservations are required. Please RSVP with the Lake County Agriculture Department at 707-263-0217 by May 6.
The tour is sponsored by the Lake County Department of Agriculture and the Lake County Resource Conservation District.
The end-of-tour lunch is free but donations to help offset the cost of refreshments will be greatly appreciated and cheerfully accepted.
