The Lake County Health Department/Community Health Center is offering a free workshop from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, May 6, to help gardeners make good plant choices as they begin another growing season. The program is in room 2220 of the Lake County Central Permitting Facility, 500 West Winchester Road, in Libertyville.
The workshop will provide information on current invasive plant species and management techniques; new plant arrivals that are considered invasive in areas similar to Lake County in climate and geology; and what to do if invasive plant species are detected.
