We’re hiring! The ISC is currently seeking applications for an Invasive Phragmites Regional Coordinator who will work collaboratively to reduce the impact of the invasive plant, Phragmites across Ontario. Learn more and apply: bit.ly/3mkm4Ub
Looking to manage invasive Phragmites next year? Are you also in one of the Great Lakes states? Then apply for the PAMF Active Adaptive Management Program (AAMP) Funding!! Visit the bitly link for more information about the RFP!
Together, we’re making landscapes more resilient. Invasive Phragmites causes: 🛠️ Structural damage 🌱 Wetland habitat loss 🛣️ Overtaken roadsides and recreation areas NCC’s restoration work, like in the Saugeen (Bruce) Peninsula shows real change is possible. @WaterAgencyCAN
Indigenous Nations, state or local units of government, lake associations/watershed protection groups, nonprofit organizations, universities/colleges, and conservation groups may apply for grants to manage #Phragmites. See link for more info: www.greatlakesphragmites.net/pamf/aamp-fu...

Utah Lake is witnessing a remarkable 88% reduction in invasive Phragmites, paving the way for a new phase of native revegetation efforts, but challenges remain! Learn more here #UT #WetlandRestoration #InvasiveSpeciesControl #CrossdisciplineCollaboration #CitizenPortal
State restoration manager says Utah Lake Phragmites cover down about 88% as effort shifts to revegetation
Keith Hambrecht said the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands' multi-year Phragmites program has reduced cover about 88%, lowering estimated Phragmites cover to ~12% statewide; remaining challenges include access, landowner permissions and upstream seed sources, and a joint restoration coordinator position will be posted soon.

Did you know non-native Phragmites (Phragmites australis subsp. australis) is now the dominant subspecies of Phragmites throughout the eastern parts of North America. This map represents the North American distribution of Phragmites australis as reported by EDDMapS users as of January 2026.
Happy holidays from the Great Lakes Phragmites Collaborative staff, Phraggy, and Froggy (the European Frog-bit Collab mascot). 🌾🐸 Wishing you all the joys of the season and a fantastic New Year ahead! Thank you for being a part of the GLPC community!

I got some outside work done this afternoon. I removed an old trail cam that wasn't working well and replaced it with a new one. And trimmed trees and branches away from that area. Then I weed whacked around the pond. Our habitat guy sprayed all the phragmites and it's dying back.
We are studying the spread of common reed (Phragmites australis) in a restored wetland 🌿. We aim to understand how wetland hydrology 💧 and habitat structure 🪵🌾 influence the degree of invasion. #InvasiveSpecies #WetlandRestoration #Phragmites #GenerationRestoration #Wetlands #InvasionEcology
