This grant is for ecological restoration and invasive plant removal at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore’s Inland Marsh. It targets a highly infested three-acre area near the Inland Marsh Overlook. The primary purpose is to treat aggressive non-native cattails within the wetland, mainly through herbicide application. If time permits, the project will expand to include upland exotic plant treatment around the wetland and overlook. Additionally, the initiative aims to collect and propagate native plant seeds to establish and promote indigenous vegetation, thereby enhancing the area’s biodiversity and ecosystem health.
