Our tenacious partners in Keweenaw Invasive Species Management Area (KISMA) recently visited Gratiot Lake Conservancy to physically remove invasive thistle. Unfortunately, they reported that the problem was just as bad or worse than last year. Still, the crew removed nearly 5 bags full of the thistle, hoping to hinder next year’s flowers and to slow the spread.

Thank you, KISMA!
