ONTARIO PHRAGMITES WORKING GROUP
What is the Ontario Phragmites Working Group?
The Ontario Phragmites Working Group (OPWG) is composed of dedicated people with an interest in working together to facilitate effective management of invasivePhragmites in Ontario. This initiative is aimed at reducing the current threats posed by this aggressive invasive plant to biodiversity and Species at Risk (SAR) through habitat protection and restoration. Specific goals of the group focus on facilitation of education, information sharing and investigation and pursuit of effective management options.
The OPWG became a committee of the Ontario Invasive Plant Council (OIPC) in 2013, to continue to collaborate efforts to control invasive plants in Ontario.
