Garlic mustard, a non-native plant, is in full bloom all over the county.

The Glen Lake Garden Club, along with the National Park Service within its areas of jurisdiction, has been active in trying to stem the spread with work bee pulls.

Since the plant is present along so many area roads, the Garden Club can no longer stop the tide of growth and is now taking a new stance.

Club members plan to inform property owners of the presence of the weed on or near their property. They will also provide information about how to get rid of the invasive weed.
