The Town of New Glarus Parks Commission has rescheduled their free Invasive Species Workshop for Sunday, April 7, 2019, from 1:00 p.m.-3:30 p.m., at Bailey’s Run Winery, N8523 Klitzke Road, New Glarus. The original workshop, scheduled for February 23rd, was cancelled due to inclement weather. There will be presentations from three speakers who are experienced conservationists, presenting on invasive species, their effect on the environment, and methods for controlling their impact on native species.

The Village of New Glarus Arbor Day tree planting event is scheduled for May 2, 2019. This annual event brings together adult and teen volunteers to plant trees in the public terraces and parks throughout the community. This year marks the twenty-third year of our community tree planting event, and an average of 47 new trees have been planted each year.
