“Have We Been Invaded?” is the theme of a native plant seminar to be held September 3 at the Fisherman’s Cove Allegheny River launch site 10 miles downstream of Franklin in Venango County.

The seminar will feature a walk along the river to identify native and nonnative species, background on wildlife living along waterways and information on the best way to use native species in your own backyard/riverside habitat.

The Audubon Society, the Pennsylvania Environmental Council’s Northern Allegheny Project, the Venango County Conservation District and the Fisherman’s Cove Preservation Foundation are sponsoring the event.
