What Lies Beneath: Detecting Invasive Plants in Michigan Lakes (May 28 – virtual)

May 6 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Often, invasive aquatic plants exist unseen, lurking and spreading below the waterline until they’ve grown into a major problem. Fortunately, a trained eye can find these invaders before they wreak havoc. Join Erick Elgin and Jo Latimore from Michigan State University Extension as they reveal the training and tools available to help volunteers detect and track these underwater invaders. Hear firsthand from dedicated volunteers who have made surprising discoveries in the lakes they cherish. Whether you’re a seasoned lake steward or just getting started, this webinar will inspire you to take a closer look beneath the surface!

Note: This program is equally applicable for Minnesota’s lakes.

The one-hour virtual session starts at 8 am CT. Registration is required. Use this registration link.
