Landowners are invited to register for a comprehensive one-day invasive plant control training from 9 AM to 5 PM on August 23rd, 2025, at the Southern Indiana Purdue Agricultural Center, located at 11371 Purdue Farm Road in Dubois.
This is a practical, hands-on training by foresters and natural resource professionals, and topics include: assessing your invasive plant program, the three pillars of invasive plant management, selecting control options, herbicide use and considerations, control funding and technical assistance, and setting invasive management goals and objectives.
The training includes half a day of classroom instruction, with the other half spent outdoors with in-field demonstrations of equipment and invasive control measures. Presentations focus on invasive control, as opposed to identification.
Lunch is included, and registrants are encouraged to ask about any accessibility needs during registration.
The training costs $30, and registration is required by August 15th, 2025. To register, contact Kaylee Jacob by phone at 812-482-1171, extension 3, or by email at duboisswcd@gmail.com.
