The Ivy Creek Foundation, the non-profit which cares for Ivy Creek Natural Area and historic River View Farm, is hosting its April Ivy Talk which will focus on prescribed burns and how they are used and why. David Powell with the Virginia Department of Forestry will discuss how prescribed burns are used to help the ecosystem and habitats.
“We are excited to have David Powell leading this talk. We recently worked with him to do a prescribed burn at Ivy Creek Natural Area and Historic River View Farm and we want to let folks know why we used a prescribed burn and how it benefits the local ecosystem,” said Sue Erhardt, executive director.
Every month, The Ivy Creek Foundation hosts Ivy Talks related to history, conservation, preservation and natural history.
The Ivy Creek Foundation mission is to inspire and engage our community in the stewardship of our natural resources and our rich African American cultural history by connecting people to the past and present by honoring the land, history and community.
