Michigan Audubon actively manages several of its sanctuaries for habitat quality and diversity. Some current projects include:
Baker Sanctuary: Through prescribed burns and planting, we've restored over 100 acres of native habitat.
Davis Bog Sanctuary: We are looking for a group of volunteers to manage and steward the sanctuary, including establishing a small parking area and a short trail.
Gillette Sleeper Sanctuary: We are looking for a group of volunteers to manage and steward the sanctuary, including establishing a small parking area and a short trail.
Haehnle Sanctuary: With volunteers from Jackson Audubon, we are actively removing autumn olive and restoring prairies through planting native flowers and conducting prescribed burns.
Harris Sanctuary: We are looking for individuals to help the sanctuary steward remove invasive species.
Mott Sanctuary: We are looking for individuals to help steward the sanctuary to remove invasive species and provide general wildlife management.
Otis Sanctuary: We've restored over 20 acres of prairie and are working on about ten more acres. Other projects include establishing over one hundred nesting boxes.
Riverbank Sanctuary: We are looking for a group of volunteers to manage and steward the sanctuary, including re-establishing the parking lot and adding a trail to the river.
Warner Sanctuary: We are looking for a group of volunteers to steward the sanctuary to remove invasive species and maintain the trail system.
If you are interested in helping with any of these sanctuary projects, please contact our conservation director, Tom Funke.
