Woodland Trails Park-Prescribed Burns

The River Trails Park District will be conducting Prescribed Burns within the Woodland Trails Park wooded area through March 3 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Please do not be alarmed if you see smoke or fire coming from the woods.

Prescribed burns are an important forest management tool that benefits forests and wildlife. Prescribed burns remove invasive plant material and help restore the woods back to a native habitat. Not only does this benefit the flora of the area, but the woods are also more habitable for wildlife and pollinators. RTPD will be re-planting the areas with native flowers, grasses, and trees. Thanks for your support, as we continue the conservation of our environment at RTPD.
