SUMMARY:MINNESOTA DRIFTLESS WORK PARTY
DESCRIPTION:Garvin Heights Lower Bluff Prairie Fire Break Workday\nTuesday, August 19 – 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.\nLocation: Garvin Heights in Winona, MN\n\nWe successfully burned the upper bluff prairie and open oak woodland at Garvin Heights on April 8th. The upper bluff prairie is no longer dominated by invading invasive shrubs, it is remarkably open, full of native grasses and forbs, with beautiful stands of greater Indian plantain. In the open oak woodland, Joe-pie weed has become very prominent, it is over 5 feet tall, and it is shading the buckthorn beneath it.\nNow let’s get started on the lower bluff prairie. Help us put in a fire break that we hope will lead to a prescribed fire next spring. We will cut and treat invasive shrubs as we go down a steep slope perpendicular to the contour along the south side of this burn unit.\n\n\n \nWHAT TO BRING:\nBring loppers and saws. Winona State University will allow us to use power equipment when we sign their waiver form.\nWORK PARTY LEADER:\nIf you’re interested in helping, please send Peter Harman ( mailto:hartmanpm@charter.net ) an email (hartmanpm@charter.net ( mailto:hartmanpm@charter.net )) who will provide information about the location.\n\n
