More brush will be cleared Friday in the East Plains Natural Area, Broom Crowberry project. Some will be moved to an open pit south of Range road. Some will be placed onto an area that will be burned at some point. If anyone is interested in volunteering let me know. Thanks !

I think the plans are under way already. Feds will buy some, large preservation groups will buy more, townships already own some.......etc, etc. Buy some of the land ourselves. Get a few guys together and purchase small parcels. Don't let the greedy ones get their grubby hands on it.
