Invasive Brush Removal - Trempealeau Lakes Nature Preserve, Trempealeau Co.
Let's protect the young trees!
Tag along with the land management team at Trempealeau Lakes to help keep invasive brush out of the new tree planting! This site was formerly a pine lumber plantation and has been restored with thousands of native river-bottom trees. We need your help to prevent the fast-growing invasive brush from taking over the habitat before the trees get big enough to hold their own. We'll clear the brush and stack it to help create enough space for the baby trees to survive.
All ages and skill levels are welcome – dress appropriately for the weather, bring a water bottle and sturdy footwear and clothing to protect from brush. Events may involve full body movement on uneven ground and sometimes steep slopes. Expert instruction, protective gear, tools, and snacks will be provided. Together, we can make a big difference in a short amount of time!
