Restoring Woodlands with Fire

Fire can be destructive, but have you ever wondered about the positive impacts it can have on landscapes? Join Conservation Nebraska for a presentation from Gerry Steinauer. Gerry will be talking about the use of prescribed burns to restore oak woodland ecosystems, specifically in the Nebraska City region of our state.
