February Meeting
Managing Annadel's Oak Woodlands
Prescribed burns can generate a lot of heat,
not all of it associated with fire. Our February membership meeting will
explain how such draconian measures as burns and the girdling or removal
of Douglas firs are helping to preserve and restore the oak woodlands at
Annadel State Park.
Our speaker, botanist Steve Barnhart, participated in the studies ten
years ago that were the foundation for the current management strategy.
He has taught forest ecology at Santa Rosa Junior College for 25 years.
The meeting begins at 7:30 PM, Monday evening, February 16, in Ingram
Hall at the First Presbyterian Church, 1550 Pacific Avenue, Santa Rosa.
The public is welcome, and there is no charge. |
