SUMMARY:Phrag Fighters - Survey Training
DESCRIPTION:Invasive Phragmites is a large grass-like plant that is taking over Ontario’s wetlands and reducing biodiversity. The plant colonizes ditches\, bays and wetland pockets. It grows in such thick mats that turtles\, frogs\, and other animals cannot move through their native habitats. The plant is also tall\, and blocks sight lines along roadsides. In the spring Phrag Fighters locate areas where the plant is growing and harming local habitats. Then\, as are part of a team of 3-4 people\, Phrag Fighter teams adopt one or two wetland areas where they are responsible for removing the invasive plant using best practices (so that the seeds don’t spread). Phrag Fighter teams go out between one and three times each summer between June and early August to spade the plants\, bag them in dark bags\, and transport them to locations or landfills to be deposited.   This workshop teaches Phrag Fighters how to identify the plants\, record locations of the plants in EDDMaps\, and then how to remove the plants using the best practices which help to stop the spread of the plant. Phrag Fighting is hard work but also fun and rewarding! Phrag Fighters is part of The Land Between’s Community Science Programs and supports turtles too! \nAre you part of a Phrag Fighter team or looking to join one?  Join a phrag team here \nSign up for this workshop below: \n\n\n                \n                        \n                            Phrag Fighters\n                            Phrag Fighter Volunteers \n                        \n                        Name*First and LastPhone*Email*\n                            \n                        Phrag Fighter Training Dates*Wednesday\, March 10th @ 7pm (surveying only)Thursday\, March 25th @ 7pm (surveying only)Thursday\, April 22nd @ 7pm (surveying only)Tuesday\, May 25th @ 6:30pm (both surveying and removal)Saturday\, May 29th @ 10am (both surveying and removal)Thursday\, June 3rd @ 6:30 pm (both surveying and removal)Saturday\, July 17th @ 1pm (both surveying and removal)
