Restoration Walk n' Talk

Come join us for a Restoration Walk n' Talk at the beautiful Heritage Community Park and Natural Area! This workshop is a fantastic opportunity to learn about common invasive species and restoration practices. The walk will take place along a streamside management zone in Heritage Park where a significant restoration project is underway - supported by the Town of Blacksburg and community volunteers. Whether you're hoping to learn about stewardship practices on our shared and cherished public lands or want to find out how to apply these principles in your own backyard, this event is for you!

Carol Davis, Sustainability Manager, Town of Blacksburg

Dr. Leighton Reid, Assistant Professor, School of Plant and Environmental Sciences

Dr. Tess Thompson, Associate Professor, Department of Biological Systems Engineering
