Grassland Resilience Workshop Series: Brush Management and Soil Health
Channel: Conservation and Adaptation Resources Toolbox
Date: 2023-10-11

During this virtual kick-off for the Grassland Resilience Workshop Series about brush management and soil health, Julia Sittig, Brett Blum, and Scott Jones introduce three important grasslands in Arizona and lay the groundwork for field visits in the coming months. 

The Grassland Resilience Workshop Series brings together land managers, ranchers, and researchers to learn about standard management practices to improve soil health and manage mesquite encroachment in three adjacent semi-arid grasslands: the Santa Rita Experimental Range, the Altar Valley, and the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area. 

Participants in this workshop series learn how partners implement standard management practices to improve soil health and manage mesquite encroachment.
