Warm up this winter at our brushpile burning event in the Sunrise Unit at Carlos Avery Wildlife Managament Area, where invasive buckthorn is the fuel! Volunteers will haul, stack, and burn piles of buckthorn brush within this 24,000-acre area that is home to many wildlife species – deer, bear, waterfowl, turkey, and pheasants.
Bring your own lunch to roast on the fire – you’ll want roasting sticks, along with your hotdogs and marshmallows and buckets or chairs to sit on, too. We will provide the coffee, cocoa, cider, and a few small snacks.
The shuttle will be provided to and from the site.
