Conservation and Land Management

Join the members of Burnet Woods Advisory Council in habitat restoration efforts in Burnet Woods!

Habitat restoration events in Burnet Woods this fall will target honeysuckle resprouts, buckthorn, and hedge maple, using spray glyphosate when conditions permit, and will be well suited to deploying small teams of volunteers supported by Trained Service Persons to different areas of the park. If you are a TSP and are interested in supporting this work, we encourage you to sign up!   

Join our team for one date or all of them. We will restore our beautiful native forest by killing invasive plants or stopping their spread. From late Fall through Winter and early Spring we'll cut and stack bush honeysuckle and other woody invasives. In Spring we'll pull and bag garlic mustard. In late Summer and early Fall we’ll pull and bag Japanese stilt grass and Japanese chaff flower, and throughout the year we may engage in other habitat restoration projects. This will usually be off trail in wooded, often hilly terrain.

Friends of French Park (Cincinnati Parks Advisory Council or CPAC) is working closely with the Cincinnati Parks Conservation & Land Management Team on forest restoration. One of the first things that has been identified as a priority is trail clearance. This involves cutting back invasive plants such as honeysuckle, privet, and burning bush and treating the stumps. 

Come join us for some work on the trails at Mt. Airy! Should be perfect weather for it and 'tis the season for trail building so let's get some good stuff done!
