Despite some cold and snowy days in January, ONAPA started off the new year with three stewardship projects and did not have to cancel any of them.  We appreciated the hardy volunteers and DNAP staff that joined us as we accomplished good work on these preserves all three days:

  • Lakeside Daisy Preserve (January 14) - red cedar removal with six people
  • Brinkhaven Oak Barrens (January 23) - woody species removal in the north barrens with five people (photo)
  • Bonnett Pond Bog (January 28) - woody species removal in the bog meadow with nine people
These were all important projects, especially Bonnett Pond Bog as we cannot work in the bog meadow unless the pond is frozen (for safe and easy access), so thankfully it was very frozen this year.
