THE RIDGES SANCTUARY will be coordinating the efforts of the DCIST in Door County. Along with the knowledge of The Ridges’ staff, education programs and equipment to fight invasive species will be available to groups and individuals who need them.
More and more invasive species are impacting Door County. To help educate and expand the overall program, The Ridges Sanctuary will help the Door County Invasive Species Team by
COORDINATING:
• education programs
• scheduling workdays
• assisting landowners
Marne Kaeske, Ridges’ Stewardship Coordinator, will coordinate the DCIST effort but the entire Ridges’ staff plus the many contractors now licensed to control invasive species are here to help you.
SITE VISITS: To help you with control of invasive species, we can come to your property for a site visit to identify native and non-native species, to assess what has been done and help develop an action plan.
ACTION: Contact The Ridges (920) 839-2802 – to update us on your efforts or concerns by May 1 so we can better plan the upcoming season.
UPDATES: Workdays and education programs will be posted on the DCIST website. http://map.co.door.wi.us/swcd/invasive/default.htm
VOLUNTEER HOURS: Any hours you work on invasive species in Door County, will help toward the requirements of our DCIST grant.
