April 23: Invasive Species Management Open House

Join us for a public open house to provide feedback and learn more about the Town’s draft Invasive Species Management Framework. Invasive species (including plants and animals) can disrupt ecosystems, threaten native species, and affect the health of our natural areas, and have economic impacts on our community. The Invasive Species Management Framework will guide the Town’s approaches to prevent, monitor and manage invasive species, and help identify and prioritize what to manage.

Whether you’re a resident, landowner, or simply interested in the environment, we welcome you to attend and be part of the conversation. Together, we can make a difference in protecting and restoring our natural spaces. For more information email environment@haltonhills.ca
