VOL - Native Shrub Planting in Ruffed Grouse Habitat

Native Shrub Planting in Ruffed Grouse Habitat website

Ruffed Grouse Management Area at Hwy 1/Dove Rd and 330th Street
Pillager , MN 56473

Join Great River Greening this fall to plant mast-bearing shrubs good for wildlife per the MnDNR, into a meadow opening at the RGMA. These plantings will provide an important food source for ruffed grouse and other game and non-game wildlife, as well as provide pollinators with another spring source of nectar.

Volunteers will plant the shrubs in pre-dug holes and place cages around them to protect from deer. Mulching and watering will be tasks as well. The site has fairly uneven terrain and about a 3/4 mile walk from the parking area to the work area, however volunteers can be stationed closer to the parking lot upon request.

This is a family-friendly event. Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds are encouraged to attend. No previous knowledge or experience is necessary, we will provide the tools and training required.
