Have you ever wondered how habitats in Will County, Illinois looked and behaved before plows and farms? Would you like to support robust habitats at home? Today's landscape is heavily augmented by machinery, but also the absence of key animals that made robust habitats. Join us for an informative talk on managing small areas to support our local wildlife by mimicking absent animals and processes.
