Blue Herons, We Still Need Your Help!

We have selected an intern for this summer! He is graduating from Taylor University this May and is in need of local housing from June 1st until mid-August (maybe the end of August, depending on our work load at the end of cattail season). Is there anyone in our local community that would be willing provide housing for him this summer?

Please contact us at 260.316.2498

After yet another burn, the crew pauses to admire a giant open grown swamp white oak on private property in LaGrange County. A tow strap was used to take a crude measurement of the circumference of the trunk at breast height. It came in at 13′ 8″! The behemoth is likely between 200 and 260 years old  4/12/2022
