[CANCELLED] EMPIRE-SAUK WORK PARTY
[CANCELLED] Erbe Grassland Tree and Brush Removal Workday
Sunday, January 19 – 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Location: Erbe Grasslands
PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED
Join us at Erbe Grassland to remove trees and brush, and burn brush piles. Erbe Grassland is a 140-acre TPE preserve located in the Driftless Area of western Dane County. The preserve is being managed primarily as prairie, along with some limited oak savanna, for a wide range of rare and declining species dependent upon this habitat.
WHAT TO BRING:
Be sure to wear appropriate clothing for the weather (dress in layers). For burning brush piles, wear old clothes you do not mind getting small holes in from fire brands. Do not wear synthetic fabrics near burn piles; they ignite too easily. Wear sturdy footwear and work gloves. Bring drinking water.
