The Burn December 1, 2012

The Burn
Our volunteer fire department burned part of our prairie.  Some wouldn’t catch fire because the vegetation was thin or wet.  They hope to come back and try one more time.  I’ve been working on the restoration for about 7 years and my reading indicated a burn would be favorable.  A burn decreases European grasses and helps native grasses get started.
