Join Lower Merion Conservancy Director of Education, Amy Chapkovich, for a FREE Zoom session discussing chemical-free practices for controlling the Spotted Lanternfly population in your backyard. The program will weigh the pros and cons of popular control methods and encourage participants to envision, create, and care for outdoor spaces that naturally discourage the spread of invasive pests.

Garden Club members will receive a Zoom link the day before the meeting. Nonmembers and visitors can register for free on the Lower Merion Conservancy website.
