Friends of the SLSB Activity Report
for Thursday 31 May 2012


Attending: Henry Whitesel, Mike Waltz, Kent Wagner.

Location: Goat Hill Serpentine Barrens.

Accomplishments: We started at 0900 and finished about 1430.

We worked along The Rose Trail in the serpentine site labled "q" located between sites "h" and "c": Map. We cleared trees and green briar to create a serpentine savanna. After 2 workdays at this site, we are about half done clearing it. The warm season grasses already have a great start and should thrive as the summer progresses. This is a gentle sloping area with an eastern exposure and one that should be a great example of restoring serpentine habitat.
