The wooded common areas of our community associations and places of worship are amenities for humans but also important elements of our infrastructure, cooling the environment and soaking up stormwater that otherwise causes downstream flooding. The woods also are home for our non-human neighbors. In times past, these areas would take care of themselves, but those days are past in Fairfax County. The trees are under numerous threats, but the invasive non-native tree-killing plants constitute one of the worst of them, while at the same time being something we can control if we take action.
Audubon At Home mini-grants of $3,000 are available. Applications are due August 15. Learn more here ([link removed]) .
