Description
Our goal is to support and expand populations of host and nectar plant species and to reduce habitat isolation and fragmentation by linking conservation lands through voluntary private landowner conservation.mrwc began working on prairie recovery more extensively in the wren area in 2011. During this time, kincaid s lupine (lupinus oreganus) cover in wren has been expanded markedly and fenders blue butterfly has been downlisted. Notwithstanding this success, invasive control is an ongoing endeavor on prairie sites, and encroachment from weeds and the continued need for expanding suitable habitat necessitates continuing and expanded work. Mrwc proposes in the scope of this project to shore up existing kincaids lupine and nectar planting sites through weed control and expanded planting. In addition, we intend to work with the USFWS partners program to increase connectivity on four sites, removing conifer and dense english hawthorn stand barriers, working on properties with landowners already engaged in recovery program efforts. Mrwc will serve as a landowner liaison for USFWS partners agreement development, prairie survey and research projects.
