SUMMARY:Invasive Plants: Techniques you don’t know + how to fight them with native plants
DESCRIPTION:Date Feb 3\, 2026 10:30am \nLocation Acton Town Hall Room 204 \nSpeaker Lisey Good\, Wild Cohasset founder \nTopic Invasive Plants: Techniques you don’t know + how to fight them with native plants \nDescription Lisey will discuss the major issue of invasive  plant species in our area\, how to identify them\, and why and how we should combat them involving the restoration of appropriate native plant species. \nInvasive plants range from a minor nuisance to a dire threat to endangered species and entire forests.  How to tell the difference?  And what are the best ways to identify and remove the plants that can do the greatest harm? This program will help gardeners identify common invasive plants in Massachusetts and will teach them how to deal with the very worst offenders.  It will include new techniques developed abroad– and even some “passive” methods that use native plants to fight the battle. \nLisey Good is the founder of Massachusetts-based environmental group Wild Cohasset\, which works to support the native plants of New England and to help all the wildlife that depend upon these plants for survival. A frequent lecturer on issues related to biodiversity and wildlife\, Lisey was formerly the on-air interior designer for the Emmy Award winning television program This Old House. Today\, she works in marketing\, PR and fundraising for animal welfare organizations such as Second Chance Animal Services. \nLisey will discuss the major issue of invasive plant species in our area\, how to identify them\, and why and how we should combat them involving the restoration of appropriate native plant species. \n  \nSocial Time 9:00 am\nBusiness Meeting 9:30 am\nProgram 10:30 am\nLight Refreshments • Bring your own beverage\nHostess : Sandra Mika\nCommittee: Rosie Latto • Marilyn Mudry • Eloise Newell • Sherry Ryder

SUMMARY:Annual Reports Due
DESCRIPTION:Annual Reports Due \nMaking Gardening Easier as We Age \nJudy Dembsey shared strategies on how to ease gardening for our aging bodies. Those pesky knees and backs can make gardening a challenge\, so tips to make it easier are greatly appreciated. C Cutting back on maintenance is the top priority. We all love our variety of flowers and plants\, but they require a lot of work. Avoid digging\, planting\, or pruning for long periods of time. Take frequent breaks and hydrate while working. Weed the garden after a rainfall\, as moist soil makes it easier to pull weeds. Scale back your gardening work with fewer flowering plants. Substitute bushes for flowers since they do not require deadheading or as much pruning. Perfection is not required. Learn to live with a few weeds or less than manicured bushes or lawn. When maintaining your garden gets overwhelming\, hiring outside help might be the answer.
