Timber Stand Improvement Work Party- Wandering Rock SNA, Buffalo Co.
Let's remove invasive trees and brush together!
Would you like to start managing your forest but are not sure where to begin? If so, join us for a day of timber stand improvement at Wandering Rock State Natural Area, where we'll work to remove undesirable tree and brush species in order to enhance overall forest quality. Following this work party, there will be a presentation on habitat typing and understanding the health of your timber stand from 5-7pm. We hope to see you there!
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!
