Tuesday, February 24, 2015, 7:00 p.m. INPS White Pine Chapter meeting
Presenter: Brenda Erhardt, Resource Conservation Planner, Latah Soil and Water Conservation District
Topic: Part 1: The Value of Common Weedy Native Plants
Part 2: Fires Effects on a Local Prairie Remnant Location: 1912 Center, Great Room, 412 East Third St., Moscow, Idaho (between Adams and Van Buren)

The first part of this program focuses on the value of various native plants that have a reputation for being weedy or overly aggressive in certain settings. Many of these plants, both annual and perennial, are important components of the local native plant community but are often overlooked. This presentation will help identify these natives and will demonstrate the value these plants can have in restoration efforts. Part two will highlight the results of monitoring efforts three years following a prescribed burn on a local Palouse Prairie remnant. This monitoring project was particularly focused on determining the effects of this burn on the non-native invasive annual grasses.
