LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The Lake County Weed Management Area announced that after a two-year break it is again able to host its annual invasive weeds tour.

This year’s event will be held on Wednesday, May 25, when the weather will probably be pleasant and many weeds are likely to still be in flower.

As always this event is free and the public is welcome and encouraged to attend.

Participants will gather in front of the Ranch House at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park, 8400 State Highway 53 between Clearlake and Lower Lake, at 9 a.m., take a leisurely guided walk of about a mile to see the amazingly diverse array of invasive plants that flourish in the park and the effects of control mechanisms such as control burns, and return to the house for a discussion of aquatic invasive weeds under the trees.

Please wear sturdy shoes and feel free to bring a bag lunch if you so choose.

This event is sponsored by the Lake County Department of Agriculture and the Lake County Resource Conservation District.

No reservations are required.

Please contact the Agriculture Department at 707-263-0217 if you have any questions.
