Although it’s been raining, we’ve been staying busy !

We just finished our last tree planting of this spring. This project consisted of a mix of Red and White Oak, Tulip Poplar, Flowering Dogwood, Gray Dogwood, and other species all throughout this landowners property.

Planting tree’s is a great supplement to your property when trying to achieve certain goals. It’s an easy way to create wildlife habitat and forage.

If you’re interested in planting tree’s on your property, reach out to us !

Another great day of putting some fire to the ground and promoting native habitat !

Prescribed fire is a great tool in your toolbox when it comes to habitat management. In this case, a grassland prairie, was being invaded with invasive autumn olive, bush honeysuckle, multi flora rose, and other non-native invasive species; as well as woody shrubs.

Fire in this scenario, worked wonderfully. It scorched the woody shrubs, boiling the sap which will kill them off. It also eliminated the cool season grasses which will allow for native wildflowers and grasses to come in and not have to compete for space or nutrients.

Today was a great day to do a walk through of this property we had done an invasive species removal project on the left as part of an EQIP contract. The neighboring property on the right, loaded with blooming honeysuckle, privet, and multi flora rose. As compared to the left, no honeysuckle, privet, or multi flora rose ! Spring ephemerals, that were once shaded out are slowly coming to life.

This is a great success story of the difference between a woodland that is covered with non-native invasive species compared to one that isn’t. Early blooming woodland wildflowers and other native forbs don’t have to compete with non-native invasive species.

You may have heard someone say that honeysuckle and other non-natives provide great food or cover for wildlife. Yet that is not the case, honeysuckle berries in particular do not provide wildlife with proper nutrients for survival. It’s an ecological trap. They’re low in fats and protein, yet high in sugar. Making wildlife feel full, but not nutritionally fulfilled.

Great day for some prescribed fire with Kestrel Prescribed Fire Solutions, LLC and Conservation Contracting, LLC.

Prescribed fire is a great management tool for both forests and grassland prairies. It combats invasive species and allows for our natives to thrive. Some of our natives, such as Oaks, are adapted to fire and contain thick fire-resistant bark.

Now is the time of year the forests start to wake up and new blooms form everyday. Unfortunately most of our forests start with non-natives blooming first, such as European Privet (Ligustrum vulgare) pictured below, and many other non-native species. This is a problem for our native plant species and wildlife. Non-natives take away essential resources such as sunlight and space from our natives. They also don’t provide quality nutrition for our wildlife species.

If you’re looking to get the most out of your forest, create a thriving native eco-system, and benefit wildlife; removing non-native plants are essential.
