The Benzie Conservation District would like to thank one of the area's newest organizations for their fine work.
The Northwest Michigan Cooperative Weed Management Area (CWMA) has been spearheading the effort to eradicate
Garlic Mustard in Benzie County. Public awareness for this highly invasive plant has been growing steadily since
the group's inception in 2005. We have partnered with the CWMA to help educate landowners and disseminate information
on identification, life history and control of garlic mustard. To volunteer for area control efforts, download this form, fill it out, and mail it to the address at the top of the form.
The CWMA covers a four-county region, including Leelanau, Benzie, Manistee, and Lake Counties. Each county's respective
Conservation District serves as a conduit for public information, news, and upcoming events regarding garlic mustard
control. Also, please call us at (231) 882-4391 to report sightings of this weed, or download this form, fill
it out to the best of your ability, and mail it to the address at the bottom of the form.
