Native Grass Field
I was excited to head out this morning and walk through the newly-burned fields. It’s always interesting to see the land in this charred state. Even though the fire engulfed the pre-planned areas, some shrubs and trees remain unscathed. It’s called a “patchy” burn which creates a diverse “mosaic” on the landscape. Still, much of the brush and understory has been removed or reduced. Some places look barren now, but soon we will have native grasses covering these fields, and by next season we can turn the cattle out to graze.
