SUMMARY:Prescribed Fire in an Urban Setting with Clint Brooks
DESCRIPTION:Clint Brooks with Mecklenburg County Natural Resources will discuss prescribed burns in Mecklenburg County’s nature preserves. Join us in-person or virtually.\n\nFire is an important element in helping certain native plants survive and thrive particularly in prairie ecosystems. A 21-year study by the Chicago Botanic Garden found that fires set back weeds, kill shrubs, and help plants flower and produce seeds for the next generation by improving pollination and reducing the isolation of individual flowering plants.\n \n \n\nClint Brooks thought he wanted to be a farmer when he got older. Once he discovered resource management, he never looked back. As a Natural Resources Supervisor, he manages a crew of three who remove invasive species, facilitate prescribed fire, monitor species of concern like endangered Schweinitz’s Sunflowers and mark and maintain boundaries of Nature Preserves. He and his crew spend most days outside, exactly where he loves to be!\nLocation:  Reedy Creek Nature Center, 2900 Rocky River Road, Charlotte, NC, 28215. Masks required.\nVirtual Option:  REGISTER HERE\n \n
