SUMMARY:PA Environment Digest Blog: Master Watershed Steward Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kit Sale
DESCRIPTION:Penn State Extension Master Watershed Steward Program is now accepting orders for their 2024 Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kit Sale through June 18 or until sold out.\nPick your preferred kit online and select the most convenient curbside fall pickup location from 17 sites across the state. \nProceeds from the Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kits will support the Master Watershed Steward program providing volunteer-driven education and restoration work in that region. \nEach of the Watershed-Friendly kits are designed to help you incorporate more native plants into your property for habitat creation\, stormwater management\, pollutant reduction\, and other positive ecological services.\nReducing stormwater runoff\, reducing water pollution\, conserving water\, and supporting wildlife and pollinators are critical elements of healthy watershed-friendly properties and the focus areas of the Penn State Extension Master Watershed Steward Watershed-Friendly certification\, a collaboration with Nurture Nature Center. \nNative plants are woven throughout the certification criteria because of all the benefits that native plant gardens can provide.\nKits are composed of plant plugs from carefully selected species grown by Kind Earth Growers using locally collected open-source pollinated seeds and 50% peat-free growing media. \nPlant plugs are smaller than what is typically found in nurseries\, allowing for easier transportation and planting within existing vegetation. \nThe plugs have healthy root systems which will establish this fall so that your plants can flourish next growing season.\nClick Here to order and for all the details.

SUMMARY:Invasive Species Scavenger Hunt
DESCRIPTION:The Pennsylvania iMapInvasives Program will once again be hosting its annual “Invasive Species Scavenger Hunt” \nDuring the month of August\, challenge yourself to identify\, search for\, and report your findings of five invasive species as part of a special statewide event. A webinar training on Tuesday\, July 30 at 11am will highlight the checklist of species and explain how to report observation data to iMapInvasives. After the webinar concludes\, resources will be provided to participants on how to identify each of the five species as well as the habitats they reside in.  For reference\, this year’s species list will include:  \nBamboo (any variety) (Phyllostachys/Pseudosasa spp.) \nSwallow-wort (any species) (Cynanchum spp.) (syn. Vincetoxicum spp.) \nHammerhead worms (any species) (Bipalium spp.) \nEnglish ivy (Hedera helix) \nBlack jetbead (Rhodotypos scandens) \nParticipants will be given the entire month of August to search in their local natural areas and document their findings in iMapInvasives for these species\, including both presence and absence findings. All participants who complete their checklist (i.e.\, report at least one presence/absence record in iMapInvasives for each of the five species) will be entered into a drawing to win a prize package of outdoor-related gear and an invasive species field guide. Three lucky people will be randomly chosen as the winners of this year’s event. \nIf you’re interested in participating as an on-the-ground surveyor\, register to attend the July 30 webinar session. Can’t attend live? Register\, and after the webinar you will receive a link to watch the webinar at your convenience.\nRegister for the 2024 Invasive Species Scavenger Hunt.\n
