Invasive Alien Plant Species: a walk in Glengarriff

Ellen Hutchins Festival

A look at the invasive alien plant species that grow in the area, the impact they have on local ecology and how to control them.

Glengarriff Village Playground

This walk will look at the range of invasive alien plant species and garden escapes that grow around West Cork, examining where they come from, why they thrive in West Cork, what impact they have on the local ecology and how they can be controlled. The event will be led by Phoebe O’Brien (botanist and co-author of the recently published Guide to the Non-Native Invasive Plants of Britain and Ireland). It will be a gentle walk along paths, though the amenity area, following the shore adjacent to Glengarriff village. Meet at the entrance to the amenity area by the village palyground.This event is part of the annual Ellen Hutchins Festival 16th-24th August: <a href="https://ellenhutchins.com/event-listings-2/" title="https://ellenhutchins.com/event-listings-2/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Event Listings - Ellen Hutchins - The Story</a>
