Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority is excited to announce the launch of the Mississippi Valley Invasive Phragmites Working Group.
YOU are invited to join the working group to share your insights and expertise, and help us effectively monitor and manage Invasive Phragmites. The purpose of the group is to coordinate monitoring, mapping, and educating the community on Invasive Phragmites--recognized as Ontario’s worst invasive species.
Members are expected to participate in 2 to 3 meetings annually and assist in guiding our priorities and plans.
The Ontario Phragmites Action (OPA) program coordinates a collaborative, province-wide effort to combat the impacts and spread of invasive Phragmites. This initiative is made possible by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and led by the Invasive Species Centre and the Nature Conservancy of Canada, alongside a network of dedicated partners.
