Volunteers wanted for prescribed fire prep near Greenwater, Wa on Aug. 19
Conservation Northwest / Aug 08, 2023 / National Forests, Volunteering
We’re looking for volunteers to join us for a day in the woods on August 19 preparing for upcoming prescribed fires. This will be a fun opportunity to do meaningful work for forest health and spend the day with knowledgeable resource specialists and conservationists!
Ruffed Grouse Society and Conservation Northwest are partnering with the Wildlife Biologist, Kurt Aluzas, from the Snoqualmie Ranger District on the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest to help prep for prescribed fire this fall which will help create more early seral habitat. There is plenty of work left for us in terms of cutting small regeneration, piling slash for fall burning, and other maintenance work. These openings should support forage species for wildlife like ruffed grouse and elk and deer.
Saturday, Aug. 19th from 8:00 am – until it gets too hot.
Lunch is provided.
Please RSVP by using this form.
Please Join Us!
Bring closed-toed shoes and layers to work in (the area is mostly non-prickly brush), prepare for heat, we’ll have plenty of cold drinks on site.
The location is outside of Greenwater, WA of the 410 Corridor – Specific meet-up location will be shared the week prior.
