Vinca Wars Presentation on Youtube
If you missed our Vinca Wars Zoom Oct. 15, you can still check it out on our Youtube channel. Danna Olsen, Tom Oliver, and Marcia Goodrich describe the various ways they’ve attacked this pesky invasive. Here’s a link to the presentation.

Welcome to the Wild Ones Keweenaw Chapter
We are on a journey to
- educate ourselves and others about the special attributes of native plants and how to incorporate them into our gardens and civic landscapes;
- create habitat that nurtures wildlife, including bees, butterflies, and birds; and
- develop resilient landscapes that absorb runoff, protecting water quality and infrastructure.
Regular meetings are held at 6 p.m., the third Tuesday of the month, often on Zoom, sometimes in person.
