Final Friday Workday – Finch Farm with Kim!
October 25 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Finch Farm contains ~126 acres of tillable land; ~21 acres of remnant savanna; and ~3 acres of homestead. The purpose of this easement is to preserve the natural and agricultural areas of the parcels that make up “Finch Farm”. The savanna was historically a pasture for dairy cows; the density of the understory brush has increased since the cessation of grazing and is managed for invasive species. The remnant savanna on the property was managed for invasive species during the early 1990’s; with occasional workdays beginning in 2019 (Final Friday Conservation Easement Workdays with The Land Conservancy of McHenry County). Prairie seed was hand-broadcasted into the savanna in 2019.
From Woodstock, head east on 120 for 2.4 miles. A house will be on your left (north), announcing Finch Farm. You may park in the driveway.
