Berks Nature Presents: Native vs. Invasive

What are trees role in nature? What animals depend on them? How do WE depend on them? What threats do our neighbors, the trees, face?

Then we will join a Delaware Nature Society Naturalist as he tells the stories of the trees near us and how they all fit into nature’s grand scheme.
