  Bonneville County Weed Warrior Workshop Workshop

  This workshop was developed over four years ago to train Bonneville County’s seasonal applicators. This year there

  were over 300 people reached for the workshop with an attendance of 149 people that attended the two day event.

  Licensed and non-licensed applicators took training to learn about weed control techniques, weed identification and

  control, pesticide safety, and took a field trip to see these issues first hand. With the $2,582.17 spent Bonneville

  County matched $48,521.00 worth in labor and effort from the non-federal attendees, and the federal partners
  involved had over $61,00.00 in total match.

  Jefferson County Weed Awareness workshop is held each year in March.  Last year, the project had a higher

  attendance than expected and was able to give one credit toward a Pesticide Applicators License.  Jefferson County

  anticipates this year’s workshop to be the same as last year.
