Due to forecast of snow we are postponing until a later date. Please join us on Wednesday, April 21 at 10 AM TBA for an informational walk around Lagoon Park on Lakeshore Drive in Canandaigua. Learn about efforts to restore native plants and habitats while trying to reduce invasive buckthorn.
News from earlier this year:Canandaigua
Botanical Society supported Jim Engel and the Canandaigua Lake
Watershed Council in getting another exception to the Canandaigua City
Council's 5 year moratorium of herbicide use on city property. This
will allow continued Lagoon Park restorations (17 links in Index to Past
Postings/left column). Jim Engel will again cut invasive buckthorn
and "paint" the buckthorn stumps with Rodeo. We currently have $1600 to support continued restoration efforts with
hopes of planting more native plants to assist in a healthier
ecosystem. We are encouraging additional donations towards this current
restoration project. If you would like to donate, please email
Canandiguabotanical@gmail.com and we'll provide the address of our
treasurer, Bill Bross.
