This section of the Kimball Pond Conservation Area is being actively maintained to improve its value as wildlife habitat

Maintaining a wildlife habitat opening

September 6, 2023

A five acre section of the Kimball Pond Conservation Area is being actively maintained to improve its value as habitat for birds and animals. Two old fields were logged, then treated to control invasive plants. Tree stumps were ground to allow for annual brush hogging.

The result is an area with a mix of wooded edge, brush and open(ish) grassland.

The area has been recently brushhogged to keep it semi-open.
