Katherine Abbott Park is beloved for its 76-acre beauty and accessibility. A walk through these woodlands showcases what years of prescribed fire and volunteer effort can do to fight invasive buckthorn. However, some forest pockets are not receptive to fire and help is needed to clear these areas of buckthorn and other woody invasives.
Open to all ages, children must be supervised.
Light breakfast, snacks, and lunch will be provided.
Partners & Funders: City of Mahtomedi and Dellwood Foundation.
Some considerations:
- Difficulty level of restoration task: Moderate
