SUMMARY:Webinar:  Treating Firewood is a Hot Topic: seasoning\, solarizing\, kiln drying\, and heat treatment
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is part of a series for National Invasive Species Awareness Week hosted by the National Association of Invasive Plant Councils. \nUnfortunately\, firewood is a common vector for the spread of many forest and tree pests throughout North America. Join us for a combined NISAW and Firewood Outreach Coordinating Initiative webinar discussing the various effective (and potentially ineffective) ways that firewood is treated in order to prevent the spread of forest pests. We will bring in experts from the private sector and USDA APHIS to talk about their efforts to slow the spread of invasive species through better firewood treatment. Comparisons of low energy treatments such as debarking\, seasoning\, soaking\, and solarizing will be contrasted with heat treatment at various levels. \nFind out more or register at NISAW.org.

SUMMARY:Webinar:  Weed Wrangle:  A Template for Engaging Local Communities through Citywide Invasive Plant Events
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is part of a series for National Invasive Species Awareness Week hosted by the National Association of Invasive Plant Councils. \nInspired by national and international efforts now underway\, Weed Wrangle Nashville represents a fresh new push to stem the tide of biological pollution in local communities. The goal is two-fold: restoration and preservation. Organizers seek to raise awareness of the “green scourge” before more of our native plants lose the fight for the light and nutrients they require to survive. The Garden Club of Nashville\, a member of The Garden Club of America\, and GCA members from Chattanooga\, Memphis and Knoxville are working hard to pull in other local groups to establish a corps of organized resistance to this blight on our environment. Friends of Warner Parks\, Greenways for Nashville and the Radnor Lake State Natural Area are just a few of the partners now backing Weed Wrangle Nashville.  The first annual Weed Wrangle was held in Nashville\, TN during the 2015 National Invasive Species Awareness Week. This event acted as a template for other cities in the United States to engage local communities to pull together to learn about and manage invasive plants. Steven Manning will discuss the financing\, staffing\, PR and goals behind this project including 10 sites (from elementary schools to the Nashville Zoo) that created a circle of natural areas around the greater Nashville area.  The 2016 event has spread statewide and the event sponsors envision this being a national event within two years. \nFind out more or register at NISAW.org.
