Balsam, Hogweed, Knotweed & Co - Identifying & Jointly Combating Neophytes

What's it about?

Learn how to identify and jointly combat neophytes such as balsam, hogweed, and knotweed. This event is aimed at nature lovers, farmers, and everyone who wants to actively contribute to the preservation of our native flora. Come along and bring your family! Leutasch in the Tyrolean Wetterstein Mountains is known for its species-rich mountain meadows and protected areas, which are increasingly coming under pressure from invasive plants. Himalayan balsam, giant hogweed, and Japanese knotweed are among the most problematic neophytes in Austria - they displace native species and permanently alter entire ecosystems. Together more can be achieved than alone, and every helping hand counts in the active protection of our native nature.
