Credit Valley Conservation’s Post

Yesterday we conducted a very successful controlled burn at Upper Credit Conservation Area. Controlled burns are carefully set and managed fires to help restore, maintain and protect prairie and grassland habitat. The goal of our controlled burn was to remove invasive, non-native plants so a healthy native grassland with diverse species can establish and thrive. #Drone footage from the burn!

To update the Apocalypse Now line: “I love the smell of burning phragmites in the morning.” Nice PB, UCCA!
