Wednesday February 25, 2026 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM Invasive Species Meeting at Cannon Township Center

Invasive plants are quietly changing our fields, woods, and shorelines—and once they take hold, they spread fast. The good news? Early action by everyday residents can make a huge difference.

Join the Kent Conservation District for an informative and practical presentation focused on what’s impacting West Michigan right now and what you can actually do about it. You’ll learn how to identify priority invasive plants in our region, proven methods for controlling them, and simple next steps to restore your property using native species that better support wildlife and pollinators.

This session will also cover:

• Grant opportunities available to landowners for habitat restoration
• Services offered by the Kent Conservation District’s Strike Team
• Examples of invasive species work already completed in Cannon Township
• Upcoming volunteer opportunities for residents who want to get involved

Whether you own land, enjoy our parks, or simply care about protecting Cannon Township’s natural areas, you’ll leave with clear, actionable steps and resources to help restore our landscape for future generations.
