The Fairfax Tree Rescuers PRISM (Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management) will officially launch with a “Week of Action”, November 8 – 16. This community-wide initiative seeks to save our trees and natural areas from invasive plants. There are many events across Fairfax County, which are listed here. There will be an event in Centreville on Saturday, November 15 from 10 am – noon at Pleasant Hill Park (6200 Riverland Run, Centreville, VA). Registration is required for the tree rescue events because of limited parking in some locations.
