Location: Mineral Point, WI
See the impacts of 7 years of strategic management effort on a farm once over-run with wild parsnip, multiflora rose, and honeysuckle and now actively managed for quality grasslands and savanna. Visit a savanna restoration in progress - compare two different on-going restoration strategies side by side. Tour a large expansive grassland that supports Henslow’s sparrows, bobolinks, Eastern meadowlarks, dickcissels and more. Discuss grassland management using fire and mowing.
