Grasslands and shrublands are home to countless birds, insects, and native wildflowers that contribute to Nantucket’s biodiversity! The Land Bank utilizes several methods of managing these early successional habitats found at properties such as Head of the Plains. Join us as we explore a trail that features these management techniques, including mowing regimes, tree removal, and our recently completed prescribed fire.
