Happy Celebrate Weeds Day!

At first I figured this was some inside joke for people who love marijuana. Surely, someone had to be stoned to come up with National Weeds Day where people celebrate weeds, right? But the other option was National Triglycerides Day and well…

I spend most of my free time in the summer killing off a tree-sized weed, common buckthorn, which has invaded the upper Midwest since being imported from Europe. It kills most of the undergrowth in our forests here, so I figured I might as well map and learn what other, smaller types of weeds there are to keep an eye out for.

My weed map doesn’t seem to load quickly right now.

I blame the insanely large dataset from the USDA… or maybe… just maybe, it’s the curse of the dead buckthorn?! 😮
