Part 3 of a 3 part tour in the Black Earth Area. Join us for a tour of Parrish Oak Savanna. Dedicated as a State Natural Area in 2015, this 40 acre site contains oak savanna and woodland that have been managed with frequent fire for over 20 years.Our tour will take us on an approximately one mile hike on established trails with a few steep portions. We will observe the effects of long-term prescribed fire and other management and have opportunity to observe the many plant and wildlife species that depend on increasingly rare fire-adapted oak habitats.
