Invasive species are taking over our yards, gardens, and open space. They have degraded our property values and habitat. Join Westmoreland Sanctuary for a groundbreaking new way of utilizing these invasive plants for beautiful flower arrangements. Learn what invasive plants you may already have in your garden, how to remove them, and what beneficial plants to use as substitutes.
