DEC DELIVERS---NATIONAL INVASIVE SPECIES AWARENESS WEEK!

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.



National Invasive Species Awareness Week: Feb. 23–27

This year’s National Invasive Species Awareness Week (NISAW) is February 23–27 and has the theme, “Defending Our Health by Stopping the Spread.” NISAW is an international event to raise awareness about invasive species, the threat that they pose, and what can be done to prevent their spread. Partners across the country will host local events to educate how we can all help stop the spread of invasive species and protect our natural resources.

Invasive species impact everyone. When not monitored or controlled, invasive species can cause harm to our economy, environment, or human health. Thankfully, by learning about invasive species and participating in events, we can work together to manage their impacts and prevent their spread.

For more information about upcoming invasive species webinars, visit the NISAW website.
