CE: Preserving Fontenelle Forest for Future Generations
Want to know why we do what we do as land stewards of Fontenelle Forest? Join Michelle Foss, Director of Resource Stewardship on an exploration of how Fontenelle staff and volunteers care for the land in a unique urban nature center setting. As caretakers of a rapidly declining habitat system, Fontenelle Forest land stewardship crews work to balance the use of the land by people, and the preservation of the land for wildlife and habitat. In a mosaic of systems from Missouri River floodplain wetlands to mixed deciduous hardwood, to oak savanna to prairie, Fontenelle Forest properties require intensive maintenance and restoration.
