Ohio’s grasslands, historically and present day, are important habitat for a number of wildlife species. In this all-day workshop, we will discuss this impor-tance, and how best to manage grasslands for wildlife—from bobwhite quail and pheasants to songbirds and pollinators. We will cover management tools from mowing to burning to disking to herbi-cide treatment, and discuss the establishment of grasslands and the best spe-cies mixes to use.

Mast? What is that word?  What good is it to wildlife?  Mast is essentially the nuts, berries, and seeds of trees that serve as a very important food source to many species of forest wildlife. Join us Friday November 2nd for this day-long workshop focused on the identification and enhancement of the mast producing trees in your woodlot.  During our discussion of a variety of mast producing species and their different nutritionals values, we will focus on management strategies that will improve mast production and attract wildlife to your property.
