Come be a part of Public Lands Month us!
Join the WV Chapter of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and the WV Deer Association on Saturday September 7th from 8am to 2pm at Burnsville WMA in central West Virginia for a habitat improvement day. Volunteers will be needed for Non Native Invasive Species(NNIS) removal, mostly consisting of autumn olive, multi flora rose, and tree of heaven in a previous edge cut and field edges. Through removing these we are promoting the growth of native early secessional species as well as the release of already present native species, which wildlife are more adapted to using. We will also be girdling trees in a burn unit to release better trees and allow more light to the ground promoting more herbaceous plant growth in the understory and further developing a more savannah like habitat structure that isn't common on the WMA for multiple wildlife species to use.
Please RSVP prior to the event for a precise head count. A light lunch will be provided. As always, please wear appropriate clothing, footwear, gloves, and eye protection. We hope to see you there!
BHA Stewardship Projects are presented by ONX.
