Discover the hidden relationships between plants and insects while learning what makes a species invasive. We&rsquo;ll explore host plants, meet the Spotted Lanternfly and its preferred host, Tree-of-Heaven, and see firsthand how invasive species are identified and managed here at Hungerford Nature Center. Then we&rsquo;ll turn stewardship into art! Participants will use collected Spotted Lanternflies to create a unique resin jewelry piece, giving an invasive species a creative second life while learning how responsible management can help protect our native ecosystems.
