  • Thursday, May 21, 10:30 am – 12:00 noon – Invasive Pests New & Old: What to Watch For This Year

    Join The Sterling Garden Club on May 21 at 10:30 am for a free lecture from Elizabeth Barnes, MA Department of Agricultural Resources.


    The signs and symptoms of invasive pests are often in plain sight but go unrecognized too late. These non- native organisms from insects to blights, impact a wide range of New England gardens, forests, meadows and roadsides. Elizabeth will explain how to find these pests and what to do if you discover them. Learn how to recognize and identify signs of several area pests and how you can help to reduce the pests’ impact and spread. The program will be held at American Legion Hall, 32 School Street in Sterling. Please pre-register by May 19 by emailing SterlingGardenClub1934@gmail.com
