BAKER COUNTY INVASIVE WEED DEPARTMENT TREATED 270 ACRES OF PEPPERWEEDBAKER CITY -- The Baker County Invasive Weed Department recently took to social media to share the difference one year of Perennial Pepperweed treatments makes to an affected landscape.Baker County Weed Department writes, “Last year we were lucky enough to be awarded a grant for Perennial Pepperweed treatments by Oregon State Weed Board. With the funding made available to us, Baker County hired a local contractor to assist in the control of roughly 270 net acres of Perennial Pepperweed. These photos are 1 year apart in the same exact same spot. Photo 1 is pretreatment in 2025 whereas photo 2 is in 2026 post treatment. We are grateful for our partnering agencies, funders, contractors, and landowners who all made this happen. We look forward to continuing this project this year!”**Baker County Weed Department photos**
