Funding Available for Monarch and Pheasant Habitat

6/30/2018

 
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources recently announced that it will help fund grassland establishment on 40,000 acres of private rural property in Michigan, including Oceana County! We anticipate this opportunity will quickly be snatched up. If you or anyone you know has agricultural land and would like to convert it to wildlife habitat, please contact the OCD right away. A ten-acre minimum is required. Signup now through August!

2018 Invasive Species Treatments to Begin

6/30/2018

 
The OCD has grant funds to provide treatment for Phragmites, Japanese Knotweed (also known as Michigan bamboo), and Hemlock Woolly Adelgid.  Landowners who have had treatments in previous years will be contacted to re-treat if necessary.  If you think you have any of these three invasive species on your property, you may wish to come to an upcoming workshop on Thursday, July 12, from 7 to 8 PM, at the Hart Community Center to learn how to identify species on our watch list and to sign up for treatments.  If you can not make the meeting and you think that you have Phragmites, Japanese Knotweed, or Hemlock Woolly Adelgid on your property, please contact Suzie Knoll at the OCD office by calling (231) 861-5600 or via email at suzie.knoll@macd.org. You will be asked to send or deliver a photo of the invasive plant(s) and sign a landowner agreement form in order for treatment to begin.

Cobmoosa Shores Nature Walk, Thursday, July 19th; 10:00 AM

6/29/2018

 
Enjoy a couple of hours learning about the plants and birds of the Stony Lake area with your Cobmoosa friends and neighbors. Barb Rafaill and Bruce Vanderveen will be on hand to point out native plants in the area as well as invasive species to remove. Linda Vanderveen will help us identify birds.

After meeting and greeting at the Rafaill cottage (8983 Shawbacoung) we will head towards the Black Forest examining flora along Cobmoosa’s roadsides, the Black Forest woods, and talk about the changes that have occurred in these habitats over the past 20 years with the increase in deer, tree blights, and increased numbers of people. After passing through the forest we will continue on to the Stony Creek roadside and waterway before heading back. Our route will be a big loop of approximately 3 miles. Bring your binoculars along to better see local birds that make their homes in our roadsides, creeksides, and woods.

Mark your calendars: 10:00 AM, Thursday, July 19th; meet at 8983 Shawbacoung Trail. Questions? Please use the CONTACT form on this website.
