Invasive plants pose a huge threat to the biodiversity of native flora and fauna in ecosystems throughout the world.  Celebrate Earth Day on a field trip with Ridley Creek SP’s DCNR naturalist to learn to identify local native and invasive plants along park trails.  Participants are welcome to bring work gloves and hand clippers for some actual hands-on experience battling invasive plants along the way while learning how to enhance your own back yard habitat.
