Hello Extension Master Gardeners!

Two new workshops have been scheduled that I’d like to tell you about.  MSU Extension Consumer Horticulture Educator Lindsey Kerr will hold workshops in Ann Arbor and Milan on October 27th on how to trap spotted lanternfly egg masses. 

To register, choose your preferred session:

Ann Arbor, County Farm Park. 3:30-4:30pm https://pears.io/events/msuext/11282/

Milan, Wilson Park. 5:30-6:30pm https://pears.io/events/msuext/11190/

These workshops are open to everyone, not just EMGs. 
So sign up, bring a friend and learn about this invasive insect.
