Hey Look... We Are Famous!

Full house for Noxious Weed Event!

On Wednesday February 7, interested citizens from across Pacific County gathered at the Cranberry Museum in Long Beach for Management Options for Invasive Weeds, presented by the Friends of the Willapa National Wildlife Refuge. Speakers Dr. Kim Patten (WSU Long Beach) and Jeff Nesbitt (Pacific County Noxious Weed Board) gave an informative presentation about local noxious weed threats and what people can do to combat them. The Pacific County Noxious Weed Control Board provided a great selection of useful educational materials, all of which are still available by request.
