SUMMARY:Pro Series: Habitat Management
DESCRIPTION:Healthy grasslands and wetlands provide critical habitat for wildlife\, improve water quality\, and support resilient landscapes. Managing land for healthy habitat can look different on every property\, and come with plenty of questions. Knowing where to start and what help is out there can be challenging. \nJoin us for a conversation about habitat management. We’ll explore remnant prairie management\, grassland reconstruction\, wetland restoration\, and federal and state programs available to help landowners accomplish their conservation goals. \nThis program is designed to be a conversation\, not just a presentation. Bring your questions\, experiences\, and even challenges you’re facing on your own property for an opportunity to talk with a conservation professional and learn from others in the room. \nWhether you manage a few acres or simply want to better understand Iowa’s grasslands and wetlands\, all are welcome to join the discussion. \nProfessional Speaker:\nJonathan Jones; Private Lands Biologist\, Iowa DNR \n \nPro Series is a program designed for adults who want to engage in meaningful\, in-depth conversations about conservation. Each session explores pressing environmental issues\, current research\, and practical ways we can protect and restore natural habitats. Participants will have the opportunity to share ideas\, ask questions\, and connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about conservation. \nRegistration is required by Monday\, September 22nd at noon.
