Does the devilish invader tree-of-heaven have you flustered? Then come out to  Sacajawea Park on Saturday July 23rd from 9:00-11:00. We are having a workshop to include a live demonstration of the hack and squirt method to control tree-of-heaven. Learn the proper timing for control, best management practices and why simply cutting on this invasive species is ineffective. Whether you have tree-of-heaven in your landscape, manage public areas or want more information on a potential new invader, the Spotted Lanternfly, this workshop is for you. The event is in cooperation with Sustainable Tri-Cities and WA State Parks so we are asking everyone to register.
