Long Valley Meadow Project
June 15-17, 2018
Long Valley Meadow Project has been an ongoing project since 2009. This allotment had many issues that made it challenging to the family that had worked it for years grazing cattle. Many threatened & endanger wildlife species live in the area and it wasn’t economically feasible to graze cattle. The AES signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Forest Service to work towards improving and restoring the natural elements of the habitat for the wildlife and our future generations, and has worked to meet this goal ever since.
Volunteers are needed to help remove trees, lopping the limbs and stacking them so they can be burned. In the riparian creek channels we will be working to restore the functionality of the channel. In other areas we will be maintaining aspen enclosure fences & removing old barbed wire fences.
