Lindsay and I spent a hot and sweaty day on 7/2 cutting Buckthorn on the South side of the outflow from the Indian Springs.  We made a lot of progress despite the conditions.  Here are some before and after pics.

And after…

One thing that makes this work so rewarding is watching all of the plants that were previously choked out by the Buckthorn emerge.  Below is a Michigan Lily that emerged in an area along the Indian Spring that we cut last year.
